I've been procrastinating our registration for two reasons:
1. I couldn't find my checkbook in the move and I'm too cheap to want to pay the $11 processing fee online... Turns out, it's at my mom's... She tried to send them to us but it didn't work, so I finally got us in (with the processing fee) right under the deadline for the tee-shirt ordering!
2. I was afraid to sign up because even though I did "run" a half last weekend (I say "run" because I walked a TON starting at mile 8 when my sciatica/whatever that weird pain in my back right butt area was popped up again for the 2nd week in a row), I'm still really intimidated and nervous.
That said, here we are, no refunds from Active.com, so I gotta do it now! I'm nervous AND excited, so we'll see. I think it might be really cool that the half is the longest distance for the day--won't have to compare myself to the ultra awesome marathoners!
Any tips for my first BIG, LONG, SCARY race?
