I took the plunge - I signed up to do my first race. ever. In my life. 5K July 29 Montrose Harbor Chicago IL - Woman's only 5K (goodies and festival after race end.... hmmmm wonder what is the festival??? lol) OH and the best part?

The shirt is a Nike White wicking shirt - with LIME GREEN highlights at shoulder and in the Vneck area!!

Lime Green
WWPD!! I'm taking the peeps with me!!
My ipod is set - I have some fun songs to set the pace RESPECT... then I think What am I doin? am I nuts? Then Wynona Judd comes on and talks about dreams, and they sing "Why not me" now the song alone is just weird, its the intro that she gives it about living her dream for 18 years and we all can do it - why not you? why not? Then I have some happy music including the "Off Kilter" (epcot) they sing "Run run away" It just cracks me up - good pacing... then when the next self doubt sets in I hear Clay Aiken singing "Measure of a Man" > >
He never gives up
Lets go of his dream
His world goes around for his one true belief
Is that how you know
Is that what it means?
Would he walk on water
Would he run through fire
Would he stand before you
Would he will be your anchor when the dark unfolds
Would he always love you the best that he knows?
Would he give his life up
To be all that he can
Is that, is that, is that how you measure a man
and more "happy music" (Beach Boys, Jimmy Buffet... fun stuff)
Then negative talk and along comes Donny Osmond singing "This is the Moment" > >
This is the moment; this is the day
When I send all my doubts and demons on their way.
Every endeavor I have made ever
Is coming into play, is here and now today.
This is the moment, this is the time
When the momentum and the moment are in rhyme
Give me this moment, this momentous moment;
I'll gather up my past, and make some sense at last.
This is the moment, when all I've done
All of the dreaming, scheming and screaming becomes one.
This is the day, just see it shine
When all I've lived for becomes mine.
This is the moment, this is the hour
When I can open tomorrow like a flower.
And with my hand to, everything I've planned to
Fulfill my grand design; see all my stars align;
This is the moment, my final test;
Destiny beckoned, I never reckoned second best.
I won't look down, I must not fall;
This is the moment, the sweetest moment of them all.
This is the moment, forget all the odds
This day or never I'll sit forever with the gods.
When I look back I will recall, moment for moment
This was the moment,
The greatest moment of them all.
So Peeps what songs help get you through?
