This Time Next Friday...

...my Ragnar adventure will already be underway, and I'll have my first run done!  It's so odd to think that something I've been looking forward to since August is just around the corner.  There's still so much to do between now & then!

 
Don't worry!  Grandma's already got her wine.  (Thanks, Dad, for picking that up & delivering it.)  If I won't be drinking that day, she sure as heck should be!  :-)

I want to start packing, but I've got to (1) run three more times before race day gets here, and (2) watch the weather to figure out what to pack!  Speaking of that, I realized not too long ago that I probably would not last long on Survivor.

Are you wondering why?  Have you watched the show?  No matter the location, the contestants usually end up hungry, tired, wet, and cold.  Do you want to know how many of those things I enjoy?  In the words of Dave's grandpa, "Zilch!"  This slightly worries me; races, especially long distance relay races, go on pretty much regardless of the weather*.  (* Of course there are exceptions, but not many!)  The good news is, though, the weather looks like it may be pretty good!  This is what Weather Channel is showing for Marathon next Friday & Saturday.

The wind could be less, but I'll take 70 degree temperatures all day long & twice on Sunday!
