I had my last Burger King breakfast this morning. Since my marathon is 6 days away, I have now forfitted grease. I need to forfit chocolate, but let's not get too hasty...
Finally, the weather in Houston is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!! I wore my leather jacket this morning and I can't tell you the last time I wore a weather jacket in Houston in October. I looked at Weather.com for the weekend weather for the marathon, and it's going to be nearly perfect (the perfect part being the high is 62 and the nearly part because it might rain). Things are looking up.
Two of my friends completed the Nike Women's Marathon in San Francisco yesterday. Delphi, who ran the San Diego Rock'n'Roll Marathon with me, finished and shaved 13 minutes off of her time. Christine is a first-time marathoner and she finished in a little over 6 hours. Both give me hope. Neither one of them trained like they should have (as I should've as well) and they finished within 6.5 hours. I want to Beat the Bridge, which is 21 miles in 5 hours (I just discovered that extra mile yesterday, much to my dismay). I wonder if they give any leeway on that. We shall see on Sunday...

Ginny ran it too & finished in 4:47:09. Oh how I wish I could do a marathon that fast!
I'm sure you'll do great at the Marine Corp. I can't wait to hear how it was. GOOD LUCK!!! :)
