Super excited
I have that pre-race feeling which is somewhere on the border of extatically excited and downright terrified. It drives me to run around in circles cramming extra stuff into my bag and panic guzzling any carbs I can lay my hands on.
We're leaving tonight to drive up to Gairloch for my first mountain marathon.
Camping up in Fort William last weekend was enough to convince me that an April mountain marathon in the North of Scotland is tantamount to suicide. However the sunshine this week looks promising and has been gradually melting away my concerns to leave a warm fuzzy feeling.
How bad can it be? And is sleeping on bubble wrap really a viable option?
It looks like I'm about to find out.
