Welcome to Saturday Run Day
"This Run Day just so happens to be a fantastic Race Day." At least that's what I keep telling myself to get pumped up in hopes of achieving my personal best. As a runner I'm ALWAYS in competition with myself. I want to do better than before, be faster and push myself to my limits. In preparation for race day I try to drink as much water as possible the day before and have a hearty but healthy dinner the night before.
I usually wear a running dress or a skirt and tank top to run in. A fun outfit is sometimes what gets me through a gruesome hill then sprint through the finish line. I go to bed and force myself to fall asleep, then as soon as I shut my eyes comes Race Day.
Race Days start off with a wake-up call that always comes a little too early accompanied by a massive amount of nervous energy on the side. I attempt to calm my nerves by showering then trying my hardest to consume just one cup of coffee to give me that little kick.
I set up my playlist, take my routine pre-race pictures, give my hugs and kisses to my loved ones then before you know it, it's time to leave for the race.
We make it to the start line with 2 minutes to spare before the race begins. We hear the motorcycles of the cops start and rev up to indicate we are just a few seconds from taking off. The race announcer makes his opening statements, then BAM! The Race has started.
The crowd starts to pick up the pace, I cross the start pad and start my watch at the same time. The Spotify jams are on and I take off up the first hill. That first hill ended up being 1mile. Finally making it to the top of the monster hill and am now headed back down. I lean forward and start picking the pace back up to make up for my steady hill climb. The sun starts to blaze through the clouds and I am now half way through the race. Just then I start the climb back up and up and up and up, slight straight, and up up up some more to where I finally reached the finish line and collect My medal
No matter how hard you work in life, you always have room for improvement
