Well, 24 hours I hope to be out on the TCM course along with many others. Hoping that my digestive tract cooperates between now and then. I always get SOOOO nervous this close to a marathon. I'm always wondering when the leg cramps will start, when I'll be reduced to a walk, then a slow, interrupted walk.
It can get ugly. REALLY ugly. Perseverence is the name of the game for marathoning for me this year, I guess. Adversity strikes twice. Yes, I need to work on my positive mental attitude. :DI went up and worked the TCM expo yesterday. Fun! I walked the floor a bit answering questions, handled a register for a bit, and acted like a Vanna Wanna-be for a bit!
Seen at the expo: Tom Woo (thank you for taking the pictures of me--sorry I forgot to get one of him), Paul Nelsestuen and Lee Jameson ...
and Tonia Mayerle and Angela Cramer (twice!).
Kristin Armstrong, runner, triathlete, Runners' World blogger and Lance Armstrong's ex-wife, was giving a talk when I went to the hospitality area for a sandwich. I can't figure out why they set up the area as they did. The speaker's podium was in the dark and the screen was lit. So my photos were terrible--without a flash, they're blurry, with a flash they're dark. She talked about being a mom and an athlete.
More photos.
From Lisa Pelowsi: Very cute video of a future Olympic gymnast? Maybe. Maybe not. But he's very cute. :D
Well, my very best wishes for lots of running dreams to come true tomorrow at the TCM events! Please consider sharing your stories about any of the races, whether as a participant or spectator, for the next issue of RTC News. I'd be much obliged!
