Ready to Run (and Rock) Cleveland

Gorgeous day for a 4 miler.  Thanks to my 14 and 15 hour travel days this week I haven't had much time to run in my last week of taper.  The time off had me wanting to be a little speedster (well speedy for me).  I had to keep reminding myself to take it easy.  

I finished the playlist *I think*.  Now begins the arduous task of packing.  Most of my stuff is in piles all over the house :) Then  leaving tomorrow late morning/early afternoon for Ohio.  Dad will be grilling out tomorrow night for dinner.  It will be nice to hang out around the house instead of going out which is what we usually do.  Then Saturday is the expo and dinner with 14 people in Cleveland!!! We are staying downtown Saturday instead of my dad's house close to the start line so I just need to wake up and walk outside :)  (Thanks Hilton points) I'm excited to hang out with my family and all my friends who will be around or in town because they are running the 10K and 1/2 marathon.  It's going to big one big par-tay!

I probably won't post again here until after the marathon.  I will most likely be updating facebook though :) Not sure if the cleveland website has live time tracking available but if you want to take a gander check out this link. My bib number is 2126.  

Hope to "see" ya on the other side with a good story to tell and lots of pictures!  Good luck to my fellow RBFs who will be in Cleveland too - Audrey who will be running the half and Maria who is running her first marathon!!!
