I ran by this tree.
Its one of my faves during fall every year.
It looked like it was glowing this morning with the sun shining on it.
I also commiserated with my running partner (ashley) about how the marathon is one week from tomorrow and I am getting nervous.
Even though this will be my 4th.
Still nervous as hell.
And I also checked my weather channel app on my phone multiple times during our supposed-to-be-8-but-turned-into-10 mile run this morning.
Cuz I am stressing over the weather on race day.
I have NEVER had good weather for ONE of my races in Chicago.
Ever.
Remember last years full??
The 10-day forecast came out yesterday and in just one day it has already jumped up 5 degrees.
Not good, people.
Not good.
Please pray for me that this years weather is not a repeat of last year.
And also pray for me that I will forget about the weather, forget about my finish time, and just enjoy it and have fun.
p.s. interesting running fact of the day:
when I plugged my ipod into my computer after my run today, the nike+ website that I use to track my distance on my runs says I have run a total of 1,588.91 miles since joining nike+ (which was back in 2008 when I started training for my very first marathon).
1,588.91 miles, people.
Thats one-thousand five-hundred eighty-eight point ninety-one miles.
Crazy.
