Excitement

Today I am grateful for excitement.  I’ve been training for the past 4 months to run the Chicago Marathon, and hopefully this weekend it’ll all pay off.  Today I went to the marathon expo, a large showing of all things running related.  There’s always a sense of excitement I feel in the pit of my stomach when I go to such a large event that completely caters to one of my passions and surrounds me with others who feel the same.  There’s a buzz in the air, like we’re all a bunch of kids in our own toy store, but instead we’re a bunch of runners surrounded by all things running.  There’s a camaraderie, an unspoken bond, that helps perpetuate that excitement, and I am incredibly grateful for that.
