"LOL.  Yeah, it's only a 5k.  They folks thinking about the 50 or 100-miler
need to be obsessing... :)"

+1.  Too funny.  My very first race was a 5k and I was stressing out about
it and my then-coach said, "It's a 5k.  The last time I checked it's only
3.1 miles.  Last time I checked, you can easily walk that distance."

That quickly put things in perspective :).
