My quiet confidence has done a runner & I am having a momentary panic... Can I even remember how to run? And breathe? And do both at the same time?! 😉

You'll have a great time! Just enjoy it, and remember we want to hear afterwards how wonderful it was and we need to see the bling! :)

Thanks! I'm actually looking forward to it but driving past the start just now suddenly gave me those imposter feelings all over again! 😂

in reply to SunnyMummy

I am still an imposter most of the time and especially at an event. I don't usually advertise my runs to those who know me either lol. Once you get to the start you will be fine. Keep calm and keep telling yourself ' I can do this, I have trained for this'. Then go off and enjoy it!

Phew I'm glad I'm not the only one! I went for a steady 'maintenance' run today & it helped a lot actually as I was convinced I'd suddenly forgotten how to run. I think it helped to focus my breathing. I'm ready now, it's Just the race day logistics I'm worried about but even they're under as much control as they can be.
