Five days away...

The race is literally five days away and I am scared. I have suffered bouts of fear concerning the race, but for the past month I had been past that fear. I was confident. I thought to myself, "I may be slow, but I can run far." I did my last long run the other day and the goal my friend set was to run 12. I made it 8 1/2. I couldn't go on. Now, I realize that there will be good and bad days, but I was hit with the realization that the race could actually be a bad day. I need to get past this fear. It's weighing me down.
