One week away from departure


So, a week away from departure and I’m kinda freakin' out. Probably a 7.5 to 8 on the anxiety scale. Have I ridden the bike enough miles? Jumped enough rope? Have I done enough sit ups? Do I really have those speeches memorized? I have been thinking about this for a year. Not off and on, but seriously every single day for a year. Am I ready for this? Can I dig deep enough to handle the day-to-day physical training? Do I have enough in the tank to be creative and collaborative and   . . . shit – this apprehension is exactly what I felt going to college the first time. Sometimes I only really feel alive by doing things that terrify me.
