4 Days, 17 Hours, 14 Minutes
Not that anyone's counting.

But HOLY CRAP. I'm going to run a marathon in 4 days, 17 hours, 14 minutes.

Operation Freak The F' Out has officially commenced.

-----------------------------


The cold still lingers. I am still feeling phlegm-tastic and cough a bit here and there, but it has been filed under the "manageable" category. I am confident that I'll be 100% by Saturday.

I'm still doping up on vitamin C, zinc, fruits, veggies, protein (if you are what you eat, I am slowly morphing into tofu), water, and sleep. I'm treating my body right. It's the only one I've got. And I'm going to put it through the ringer on Saturday so I'm trying to be nice now so it will forgive me this weekend.

-----------------------------


I was going to meet Jumper after Saturday's race, but he took a nasty spill and broke a few bones. Go give him a virtual hug.

Glad you are feeling better. Keep doing what you're doing (though try to prevent yourself from actually turning into tofu) and Saturday will be great!

Good for you for sticking veggie through the training! I totally gave in to the "I want red meat!" cravings that I got during marathon training and I haven't gone back to being veggie since. I still have a major guilt complex about it though :-)

Here's hoping the vitamin C and zinc will keep that cold at bay! I struggled with that as well; fortunately the cold never materialized (although my ears got plugged and I felt a bit dizzy).

Best of luck!
