Oh Wow. Race Day is Tomorrow!

Hi all,

This race day really snuck up on me! There I was, trying to decide already which race I was going to actually be in, and then - boom - it's here! We picked up our race packets today (nice shirts!), got a fresh supply of Gu, and....we're ordering some whole-wheat pasta for dinner tonight, getting to bed early, and then we're off!

The ten miles last weekend was work, but I felt pretty OK at the end of it. I sure hope that is going to be true for me tomorrow, because I am coming down with a cold. I felt fine yesterday, but by last night, I had a scratchy throat and was feverish and very tired. I rested a lot today, and I've been taking Airborne like it was going out of style. I am even following my mom's old home remedy of gargling with warm salt water to try to heal my throat up. I think if I'm able to rest well tonight, I will be all right. I mean, hey, I already paid for it. I might as well at least try. And if I get out there and try, unless something is really, really wrong, I'll make it to the finish eventually :-)

Thanks so much for your support, fellow teammates. You mean the world to me!
