Running soon

The race is this Sunday! Eek! I'm runner #12894. I'm still a little wary of the race. I have been trying out some different socks, but I think I'm going to go with the beat up pair of New Balance ones that I wore for the marathon the first time around. I'm hoping to get a new pair of Race Ready shorts at the Expo. I've been training with my existing pair, but I want some in black.

I bought a foam roller. That thing hurts while you're on it, but it's like a miracle cure when you're off! Wish I had started this sooner. Too bad it's too big to take to WDW with me. I am going to have to be satisfied with the Stick.

Finally, I'm very happy with what I've accomplished with my fundraising. I appreciate all the support from those who donated.

Now it's on to the race. Go Team!

How do you like the Stick? I recently bought one on the advice of my PT as I've been rehabbing a sore hamstring. So far it works very well for me.

Good luck at the race!

I'm packed and ready to go! Looks like you are in the Red start line, Corral F. I'm in the Red start line, Corral H, bib #16277. But I hope to move up and bring my proof of time and get it changed while at the expo. But I guess it doesn't really matter where you start. I'm so excited! My kids told me this morning, "Only 4 more sleeps, mom!" Have a great race day!

I really like it. I think it helped a lot post-marathon last year. I intend to drop by the booth at the Expo again this year to have the cute Stick salesman demonstrate. It's like a free massage! :)

Already packed! :P I'm not packed, but I have been setting things aside to take. I hope you can move up. I think you are even faster than me. Don't run me over on your way to the finish! j/k What will you be wearing? I will be one of the purple legion, so it may be hard to pick me out. I'm planning to wear a similar outfit to what is in my profile photo. It would be funny if we passed on the route.

Best of luck, and most of all enjoy yourself! :)

Thanks. Being my first, I plan on soaking it all in and having a good time. I'll keep an eye out for your bib # amongst the sea of purple. I'll be wearing a gray and white Nike cap, gray Brooks shorts and a white top. Pretty nondescript outfit but my bib will have my full name "Jennifer" on it and I might have my neon green headphones around my neck. I'll be lurking around the Runners' Retreat Tent. Hope to see you on the road!

I love my foam roller too! Best of luck!
