Anticipation
I'm getting that feeling again.
The loss of sleep. The restlessness. My mind wanders. Adrenaline leaks out from my glands, not enough to make me shake or jump but enough to keep me aware that something is going to happen very soon.
Tomorrow is the big kayak event. By 8am tomorrow morning, I will be on Long Island Sound, headed towards Long Island.
I love adventure. I love the thrill, the danger, the beauty. I love the satisfaction of knowing I have just climbed a mountain, or biked through the Catskills or completed some other great excursion that I dreamed of or read about.
It's the anticipation, though, that I go through that I believe is so important.
I feed off it. I am energized by it. I use it. When my stamina depletes, it is the anticipation that I'd had for the past few days that would help me get through.
I am feeling it right now.
Long Island, here I come.
