So as it has been pointed out in email, I haven’t blogged much this week. Um, sorry I’ve been busy.
One of the many things I was busy with was final runs before the marathon tomorrow, picking up my race packet and driving to Puyallup for a covered cake plate (don’t ask).
I usually put the marathon and work out posts on my weight loss blog but since I mentioned to a few people that I would put up info here I am putting it here.
Tomorrow morning, 4:30ish in the morning I am driving downtown to park my truck and take the shuttle back to the start of the race. The run starts at 7:00 but I don’t know who will be released first as it is usually the full marathon walkers then the 1/2 marathon walkers then the 1/2 marathon runners then the full marathon runners. However we are split up by estimated times we would be finishing. I said 2hours 30 minutes when I signed up in January and was optimistic that I would 1) be running the whole thing and 2) would average 11 minute miles. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA…..ok sorry. I am aiming for 3 hours and 3o minutes and right now and stationed in corral number 22.
What does all that mean? Well if you want to watch the finish line streaming on the Rock ‘n’ Roll web page. I will be coming across about 10:30 if I start right at 7:00 AND am able to cut 50 minutes from the November marathon based on the fact that I will be running this one, or at least as much as I cane.
So the link is there under finish line. My bib number is 22621 in case that is needed. I am hoping that the link to watch will be obvious on the website but I can’t guarantee that you wont need to look for it.
I will come back tomorrow and update my time or link to the other blog for the whole story.
Now off to get all my gear together so I don’t forget anything tomorrow and do not need to actually think at 4am.
