Enough with the pasta already!

I did get the same number bib after all, complete with my name on it and everything. I also got a pink bracelet with split times according to my predicted finish time so won't have to figure out where I need to be every 5K to be on track - not too fast, not too slow. Garmin is great but my already non-existent math skills vanish completely after about 10 minutes when I run. Have mostly walked today, had some food, more walking, coffee, nap, more food. Not bad - I could live like that, apart from the multiple portions of pasta. Am getting a bit impatient as well, I wouldn't mind if it was Sunday tomorrow so I can stretch my legs a bit more than in a leisurely tourist shuffle...

  1. a pace band is a great idea and super helpful. i'm the same with the simplest of math, and it just gets even worse when i run ;)

    good luck!!!

  2. Ben: Indeed! But there's only so much pasta you can eat... :)

    Lindsay: First the maths skills go, then sense of direction... Good thing there are thousands of others running tomorrow too ;) Thanks!
