Race Dreams

Today’s Run:  Rest Day

The “Race Dreams” are in full swing.  ie: I forgot to pack my running shoes, the airport lost my luggage, we got lost on the way to the starting line, we couldn’t find the starting line, I was in the porta-potty when the starting gun went off and the clincher…I miss the time cut off time for the end of the race by 5 minutes and do NOT get my finishers medal! ARGH!

Seeing that I am a little OCD, these things get to me.  I WILL NOT check my luggage with the airline.  Everything will be carry on.

I will take Imodium before the race so I do not have pre-race intestinal difficulties.

I will order extra Gu from RoadRunnerSports.com tomorrow so I have enough Gu (otherwise it will be a close thing on the Gu front).

I will pack extra pairs of socks, arm warmers, hats, headbands, knee strap…everything that I can possibly think that I may possibly need…it will be in that carry on suitcase!

And clothes~!  Yes, I will pack clothes for the rest of the week!  Now there is a novel idea!

Not that I am a “Nervous Nellie” or anything.

22 days, 12 hours, 7 minutes…but who is counting!?!
