Half Marathon, Anniversary, Birthday - YIKES!

Saturday is the half marathon, I'm SO SO nervous! I'm hoping that I can do it as fast or faster than I did 8 years ago. This same race was my first race that I did that was longer than a 5k and I did it 5 days before I got married!!!! So I don't remember the fine details of the race, I remember the river and thinking it was beautiful.... So it will be fun to do it again and be able to remember the finer details... I'm SO nervous I think because this time around I have a running partner and I feel like I have let her down and I'm worried about have a horrible race and her feeling like she has to stay with me.... I'm worried I will beat myself up if I'm slower than 2:25 (my time from the last time I did it) I'm worried that my feet will hurt and that I will get blisters (something I can totally deal with as long as it's AFTER the race is done), thoughts and prayers would be appreciated...
So 8 years ago was my first half marathon and so it is our 8th Anniversary on the 16th, I'm still SO in love with my husband I know I love him more and more everyday. He is my rock, my sounding board, my salvation, my best friend, he understands me and loves me despite this. I wish we could do something fun and exciting to celebrate our special day, but I'm happy as a clam to just sit at home and laugh together.
It is Andrew's 30th birthday on the 31st, again we aren't doing anything.... I may have a surprise or two up my sleeve but we shall see.....
