Race bib is pinned on, laces are tied, and GU is at the ready. I’m nervous as heck though!!
Last night Dear Boyfriend and I had a delicious pasta dinner and strolled around a local mall. I ended up buying this Camelbak 1.5L hydration pack.
It’s got enough storage space for my phone and extra GU.
Dear Boyfriend just dropped me off at the start line, and the jitters are really setting in!!
I’ll post tonight after the race and let y’all know how it went. I’ll be ecstatic to finish, regardless of my pace!
Good luck!

Thank you!! Thankfully the race went smoothly with no literally sh!tstorms, which regrettably can be unavoidable in long distance running.

Hahah. Which is exactly why I’d be petrified to run that far of a distance. I mean, seriously, what do you do if you gotta go and can’t hold it? Just go in your pants? Wear a diaper? This is a crucial fact of life I must know

Paula Radcliffe, one of the UK’s top female Olympic marathoners, famously pulled off to the side of the road during a marathon once to have diarrhea everywhere on the road. Some folks do just pee in their pants, others don’t mind taking the time loss to stand in line for a roadside porta-potty. And sometimes, you just don’t realize how much you have to go … they say don’t trust a fart after mile 20 if you know what I mean.

Haha oh jeez. Thanks for the answer. I could not spread diarrhea on the road in front of everyone. That’s pretty disturbing.

It is indeed disturbing. She issued a public apology afterwards. I made the mistake of searching for the incident on Google image. *barf*

Have a good run. Nothing beats those start line jitters, second best part of the race.
