the essentials
In: run
16 Oct 2008In less than two weeks I’m going to be lacing up my shoes and stepping onto the start line at the 2008 ING NYC Marathon. As I sit in my apartment, winding down from a short and sweet taper run, I’m filled with anxiety, energy, hope, thanks, and… OCD. Yes, it’s coming down to logistics, and I’m gathering my supplies in preparation. I still have a bit more to collect, but for now I have the essentials:
Really cool shoes that make me feel like Deena Kastor
A necessary evil, the anti-chafe stick
A hero. Kara Goucher passing Paula Radcliff in the Bupa. She’ll be running her first marathon in NYC.
The miles.
A map… and a finish line
A sister to cheer me on… and drink a post race beer with me.
A plane ticket to NYC
Most importantly, $2,737 and a cause: Lung cancer research

A million ways to go
I dug snow caves and raised moose in Alaska. These days I surround myself with all things California, and try to avoid being a weekend warrior.
