Pre-"Race" Jitters

Picked up my bib number (#515) and T-shirt this morning at William and Mary Hall. Easy process. Also picked up maps of the course (described as a "challenging hilly course!"). No jitters about the actual running (except perhaps the challenging hills -- one of which is at the very end of the run and is straight uphill to the finish line). More anxiety about whether or not the course is well marked and whether or not I'll get lost -- figuring I'll be in the back of the pack if not dead last. The 70+ aged women's record is somewhere around 2-1/2 hours -- about what I figure I'll be running. Plus or minus 15 minutes depending on the "challenging" hills.
