Today’s Run:  Rest Day

We drove along the Alabama-Mississippi border today. We drove about 90 miles or so on a beautiful Fall day.  The sun was shining, there was a light breeze and it was 85 degrees.  A perfect Fall day.

We had stopped at a Wendy’s and grabbed a sandwich a piece, one order of fries (to split) and a drink for each of us.  Hwy 69 took us into Alabama where it changed names into Hwy 17.  We followed that into Pickensville and Aliceville.  We then picked up Hwy 30 going West back into Mississippi to the little town of Scooba (no jake brakes allowed!) and picked up 45 South until we reached the Town of Meridian.

We drove around Meridian a while.  Noticed that it is a very hilly town!  Found a pizza pace and had some spinach manicotti and soda’s.  Now we are resting up for our race.  13.1 miles with ONE porta-potty at the nine mile mark.  Sure hope I do not have to go until then-or at all for that matter.  That would be inconvenient.
