Today: The waiting game.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I am pretty sure I have packed any and everything I could possibly need for this weekend. And then some. I’ve looked at the course map more times than I can count, and Googled “how to get to the Staten Island ferry” more times than I should admit (this is what happens when someone who is easily distracted multitasks). I stuck to my training plan over the past 18 weeks. I got plenty of extra rest this week. I have said my prayers. My iPod is loaded up with Michael Jackson, Prince, and the Boss (though, from what I hear, New York will provide its own soundtrack). There are two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches tucked into our mini-fridge.
And now, as I sit here on my hotel bed waiting for a bowl of plain pasta and six bottles of water to arrive, with a view of the sun setting over the Hudson, all that’s left to do is wait. When I wake up tomorrow, however, all that will be left to do is run, baby, run. Best of luck, fellow runners!
