Ahhhh!!!!
I am officially in stressed out mode!!
I’m not sure if its the anxiety of the race thats taking me over or the anxiety of all I have to do before the race, but I feel like I am on edge. I’m almost on the verge of tears and every little thing puts me in to total freak out mode.
Poor Derek has been putting up with my stress. I may have snapped at him one too many times, but thankfully he is still here being supportive as ever!
Luckily, the stress had yet to kick in when I casually awoke this morning. I took my time tracking all my friends running the half marathon today and watching tv in bed.
Then Melissa and I set out on the task of making waffles for breakfast.
Don’t you just love my Pink jammies?
Maddie joined us for breakfast at the table.
My waffles were topped with a pear I had heated up with a little pear butter and strawberries.
Hot cup of tea.
After breakfast stress kicked in majorly when I realized it was 9:00 and I still had to pack, shower, dress, blog, bring Maddie to my parents (who live 45 minutes away), pick up Sabrina and her husband from Disney, and make it to the blogger lunch by 12:30!!
Yikes!! I’m getting anxious now just thinking about it!
We made it in the car by 10:15 and are now currently on our way to my parent’s. A moment ago I had the other ear off of last night’s reeses covered Mickey rice krispie treat to help de-stress. Chocolate does wonders. 
I am also blogging while Derek drives in the rain. Seriously, he is the best!!! I hope he understands how much I really, really, really appreciate him even if I may stress out easily. (So sorry!! 
)
Congrats to all the Disney half marathoners who ran in the sleet, rain, and cold this morning. You are all amazing!
I’ll be back tonight with my final post before the marathon. I just have to remind myself to BREATHE!

Good luck! Hang in there
Good luck and have fun.
Just breathe and everything will be ok!
Great waffles and have a fun time at the blogger lunch:)
u are going to do nothing short of fabulous. You are READY. No matter what else is on your to-do list the main thing is that you are prepared and ready for this race. The rest is just fluff!
You are going to be awesome tomorrow, simply awesome! Just remember to breathe!!!
Good luck
What a fun day before the big race! Enjoy!
Breathe in, breathe out, and think of the fun you’ll have once you get to the lunch.
You are going to blast that marathon, good luck!
Don’t Stress! Just think about how fun it will be tomorrow (well, after you’re finished). I was totally nervved the night before my first marathon, but a glass (and a half) of wine solved that problem!
Keep breathing and HAVE FUN! That’s the whole point so enjoy it
good luck!!
I totally understand about stressing! But don’t worry you’ll be great! Good luck!
I am sure that Derek understands why you are stressing!! It is not an event that you deal with everyday after all!!
Good luck tomorrow Meghann! Trust your training and have a great day.
You can do it!
That TJ’s pumpkin pancake/waffle mix is awwwesome…I just made pancakes with it last night.
Good luck with the marathon! Just think, around this time tomorrow you’ll be celebrating your awesome finish!
Stress stinks, but tomorrow when you finish the marathon in an amazing time, you will forget all about it!!
Breathe! You’re about to do something amazing!! And yes, I love your pink jammies.
Don’t stress! You’re going to do great
Good luck Meghann, you will do great!
wohooo good luck tomorrow and I hope the weather turns!!
Good luck tomorrow! Looks like you had a delicious start to your morning
Tight schedules stress me out too! Cant wait to see pics from the brunch!
don’t stress- this is supposed to be fun. everything will fall into plce- save stressing for more important things and rock the marathon.
you have a right to be anxious as you’ve prepared so much for this marathon. that’s great you have a support system who are helping you. breakfast looked delish and i love the HUGE size almond butter. costco? yum!
The waffles look amazing, and try not to stress too much. You have prepared and will do GREAT!
good luck tomorrow!!
You’re going to do great! I as SO nervous before I ran my first marathon, but everything fell into place, and worked out! I also was in debates about which pace group I should run with (the 4 hr or 4:15). I was advised to start in the slower group, and then move up if I felt OK. I ended up moving up around mile 15, and ended up running a sub 4 hour race! That way, its easier on you mentally (and we know that 26.2 miles just as physically challenging as mentally challenging) to move up a group, rather than drop back. You are well prepared, and will rock this thing. Don’t forget to enjoy every minute of your race, it goes fast! Good luck!!!
So exciting- good luck tomorrow! Maddie is too cute for words.
Good luck tomorrow girl!! Dont worry, we all get stressed, its only natural. Try to relax!! Im sure you will feel like a million bucks running through Disney : )
Good luck Meghann! Try to relax and enjoy this experience!
Good Luck tomorrow!
good luck!
Best of luck with the race! Soon, the stress will all be over and will have been well worth it!
BTW, I hope Orlando (and Florida) warm up soon! It was cold when I was there two weeks ago–guess there will be no bragging to my co-workers about the heat! >.<
GOOD LUCK MEGHANN! RELAX and ENJOY it.. running is what you love to do afterall, plus you’re totally going to rock it!!
Don’t let the stress get to you too much! I’m here rooting for you, and I know that everything will be FINE and go wonderfully! Best of luck
