Ready, set...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's almost time for the most hyped-up marathon in my little world. If the wind dies down a bit and the sun isn't too strong, I think I'll be a happy camper--at least for a few miles :) I had a nice little run this morning around the well-manicured parts of Cambridge, except when I started thinking how much longer tomorrow's run will be. I will do my best to quiet the internal dialogue from now until I finish running tomorrow. I'm kind of excited, but it might just be to get this over with so I don't have to worry so much about it!
I had a good day today otherwise. I did some work in the morning (thankfully, my computer has been behaving well) and met a friend for lunch in Harvard Square. We went to a place that has awesome sandwiches, but they are so pricey that we can only afford to split one! Anyway, it was fun. I saw a lot of people walking around H. Square with their red adidas bags from the Expo. It made me a little nervous but also glad that I got that done yesterday!
I've just been hanging out and relaxing the rest of the day. And hydrating, of course. Tonight Matt and I are planning to watch our HBO shows and I of course need to get my stuff ready for tomorrow. I hope I have a pleasant experience to report to all my faithful readers in about 24 hours! Good luck to anyone who is running!

I'm so excited to watch you fly by me tomorrow. The weather is looking fabulous; I thought it was freezing out today!
I should be somewhere in the vicinity of heartbreak hill and probably somewhere near the Tufts group. Around mile 21, maybe?
Have an awesome run, just run the pace that feels natural and I think you will kick butt.
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to hear how you do. The weather does seem great. It's a little on the chilly side, but perfect for you. Have a great run! Enjoy it!
