The fast half could actually give you a little bump before the full marathon. (Wouldn't know for sure because we don't marathon, but hey it sounds good!!) <br /><br />As to your previous post, ever thought about a lightweight hydration pack? Holds "stuff", no driving around to hide bottles, holds more stuff, etc. We like stuff on runs...HappyTrailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17651141743444721517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080856887174526132.post-83086172663133790272009-11-27T19:36:36.077-06:002009-11-27T19:36:36.077-06:00I totally agree with your reasoning on racing tomo...I totally agree with your reasoning on racing tomorrow.

I don't think I was ever successful at that. I always LOVED going to your house for visits. I just love you and your family.

It's crazy, I know, and so far, I am lucky that I can "get away" with my foolish ways. So far it's worked to my advantage most of the time, but age is creeping up fast. I think that's what is driving me so hard lately. Tick tock, tick tock.<br /><br />Thanks Katie! I hope so!Happy Feet 26.2https://www.blogger.com/profile/07319635538117315117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080856887174526132.post-15098956163731726242009-11-26T19:16:54.605-06:002009-11-26T19:16:54.605-06:00Good luck!

Funny how us runners always justify any races we do with point and counter-points. Then in the end, we do whatever the hell we want to! Good Luck, and I'm looking forward to your race report.Marathonman101108https://www.blogger.com/profile/01653913024687849329noreply@blogger.com
