If I’ve learned anything from running Boston this year, it’s that you can never be too prepared!! Or overpacked! So, this time I’ll be ready for it all. 2 pairs of shorts (not sure which to wear yet), 2 tank tops (ditto), capris, 2 t-shirts (in case it’s chilly), bunch of GUs, pins, gloves, undies, hat, throw away shirts…. you get the picture. (yep, there it is!!)
The forecast for Erie looks pretty good right now. Let’s hope it doesn’t change! This week the forecast has gone from pretty warm (78) to really rainy.
Tomorrow it’s off to see my daughter run at a huge XC meet (and she’s running varsity for her team!!!). Then off to Erie. Enjoy romantic pre-race pasta dinner with Alan (it’s our 23rd wedding anniversary on Saturday!). Hopefully we’ll see a few friends. Get a good night’s sleep and then IT’S ON!!
See you on the other side!! 🙂

Q: Do you get the pre-race jitters?
I sure have in the past day!!
Q: If it’s sunny, do you wear a hat/visor or sunglasses?
I’m not even taking sunglasses. The course is mostly shaded, and quite beautiful because it’s a state park. I’ll take a few pictures for you!
Happy anniversary, you two!
Thanks!! 23 years have just flown by!
GO GET IT!!!! I am sending you good running vibes from PA and will be thinking of you tomorrow morning. Looks like you are all prepared to kick some boo-tay! Seriously, have a great race, and remember to smile and have fun, too! 🙂 It’s your time to shine!
Ahhhhh GOOD LUCK even though I’m pretty sure it happened already – I was thinking of you as I ran my half today! Can’t wait to read all about it.
And I can’t wait to hear about *your* race! I need some motivation for my upcoming half!!
