36 hours and counting

Well the time is approaching. In less than 36 hours I will be at the start of my first marathon. I know to all the other marathoners this is probably no big deal. But, since it is my first I must admit I am pretty nervous. I do not doubt that I will finish, I just worry that I will have some weird belly ache or pain causing me to not do my best :) The festivities began yesterday when I went to the expo with my mom. It is a good thing that we went yesterday because we shopped til we dropped. We each took a picture with the "running people" at the expo. About 10 years ago, my sister took the same picture at her first marathon!!! (We are going to miss you Trish).

Tomorrow I will be heading to the hotel with my mom and then meeting my running friends for dinner. Hopefully my next blog will be good news of my finish...haha!!!!

I guess we will just have to do the party when we get back. We'll see. She totally wants a Pink Princess Pancake PJ party! it is sooo HER : )
