I will have:
- driven to St. George with Anne.
- eaten one lasagna dinner provided by Anne’s mom (thanks for the invite).
- slept at least 6 hours (this may be wishful thinking).
- donned my running gear, including my BFF, SportShield.
- pulled my hair into my favorite workout style of late, pigtails. Nothing like a soon-to-be 30-year-old in pigtails.
- ridden a bus about, oh, 26.2 miles.
- stood in the freezing cold for a little under 2 hours waiting to start.
- probably thrown up from nerves.
- run at least 10 miles.
- have about 16 miles to go.
- maybe a blister or two.
- listened to a number of fantastic songs.
- thought, “Really? A good idea? 26.2 miles?”
And now I have to ask, aren’t you sad you’re not me? Or maybe I’m the one who’s sad to not be you. Yes, that’s sounds right.
You know you are all excited for my recap which I have a feeling will be brought to you by “Dear You”, inspired, of course, by the St. George Marathon.
I wish I COULD run! You’re so ambitious. And I sure hope you didn’t throw up beforehand…
Chloe texted me after the marathon. It appears she’s still alive. Way to go, Chloe!!!
By now you would have finished running that marathon!Congratulations!
Been thinking of you today! Can’t wait to hear how it went!! I’m sure you rocked it!!
I’m nervous for you! I hope it’s great.

Good Luck! I am sad I am not in good shape but I am not said I don’t get to run 26.2 miles. I guess that explains a lot.

You can totally do this. This was my mantra an I ran, “Pain is Temporary, Quitting is Forever.” (Lance Armstrong). Seriously, I said it over and over and over, for many hours. You can do this. You can finish this. You will be so proud of yourself, and we will all be proud of you, too. Good luck!
