Mixed bag


Did you happen to look at the countdown widget on the right? Yes….there are only 45 days left now.

Right now I am mixed bag of emotions!

I am excited by the prospect of running my first ever marathon.
I am scared of not making it in time.
I am proud of myself for having come so far.
I am nervous of how much more I have to go.
I am happy sharing my experience so far with people and talking about the cause.
I am very worried and nervous about my pace and endurance.
I am freaking out that there are only 45 days left for the marathon.
I am so glad that there are ONLY 45 days left now and soon I will be done with all this and can reclaim my weekends!
I am so proud of all my teammates and the wonderful friends I have made in this journey.
I am sad to always be the last one to finish any distance.
I am so humbled by all the support I have received be it in the form of donations, wishes and encouragement.
I am so scared of letting people down.

This mixed bag of emotions needs to go out and run and clear her mind!

  2. 45 days more:
    That's 45 more days to train and develop your stamina.
    That's 45 more days for fund raising so that you can reach your goal.
    That's 45 more days of effort so that an education initiative in India will get the funds it needs.
    The rest is incidental and will not matter in 45 days.
    Apprehension is fine but focus on the fun! Enjoy this journey.

    You have come very far already. The rest will happen soon.
