Well, Tuesday I ran my first marathon, by myself. I didn't time it, and I had to stop in the middle to coach, but it was good for my psychologically, though physiologically it wasn't too good. I didn't get enough sleep or nutrition that night, and the next day I paid for it in a lack of energy. I made up for that Wednesday by eating and sleeping as much as possible, so today I'm going for a 17 miler with the stroller.

I just ordered my sleeping bag, and our CamelBaks. I am bidding on a tent and an Ogo on eBay, and I just called Cingular yesterday to make sure that a used Ogo can still be activated and everything. They still sell them over the phone for $80, if it would come to that.

Yeah, don't take my jokes about Brandon's laziness seriously. We have an agreement: he's the super busy one, I'm the lazy one with tons of free time. Therefore, I handle most of the preparation stuff for The Run, he just shows up ready to go. =) It works out well, and it still leaves me time to find new hobbies, like Lunastix, which I bought for $0.25.

Well, I need to be going. Stay tuned, The Run starts in little more than a month!
