I try to avoid any negative thoughts during a race, even if it's directed toward the race director or fellow runners. You'll do great!

It's amazing how we can talk ourselves down even when doing something unthinkable for 90% of the population! Baker Park is a lovely place to run. Very tranquil - as close to trail running as you can get on a paved path! You have done all the hard work and will be just fine for Fargo.

You have put in your miles and have been dedicated in your training. I read some other people's blogs where they don't put in the time and effort and simply hope they can do it.

It plays tricks on the long rune. Stay clear and confident, I am sure you will do OK. And Al Frankin maybe should have used his alter ego for the election, we may have saved a whole bunch of time and money?

I'm a culprit for negative self talk too, and was far too focused on results too...which weren't good. I also decided just to have fun, and simply appreciate the fact that i'm healthy enough to be out there being active! You'll do great! Awesome post!
