Hello Sports Fans!
The marathon is days away and I quiver with anticipation!
I am enjoying the taper after days of grueling training. Honestly, the sheer number of restaurants we ate at during training is enough to exhaust even the halest of ducks! I did make some very nice discoveries whilst training though and shall never forget the meals shared with the Seasoned Women.
All I think of now is carb loading, sodium intake, electrolyte imbalance and hydration. I am drinking so much water my bill bubbles all the time! I have to pee constantly! I ran out of toilet paper the other day and used paper towels -- OUCH!
I have obsessively laid out the clothes I will wear on Sunday. I have a plan to go to the store to get all sorts of snack foods that I will tote for the Seasoned Women. I bet I will see 5 HUGE smiles at mile 20 when I bust out the Uncrustables! I am thinking that some of them may cry when I hand them a Nutter Butter at mile 18! It is the little things that make my friends smile.
I may have to hitch a ride on some shoulders if I get really pooped. I only weigh 3 pounds and 7 ounces so it shouldn't be a problem.
One thing I am most excited for is to see all of the Running Elvi. Yep, that's right, the RnR marathon is going to attempt the world record for the largest number of Running Elvi in a marathon. I am excited but I hope that none of the Elvi step on me. That would mess up my marathon and I would have to peck their ankles until they laughed cause it tickled so much!
Well that is all for now, I have a large plate of shells and sauce with my name on it. Oh yeah, and ANOTHER DAMN glass of water.
Wish us luck and a blister free day!
