Just my BodyGlide and travel undergarments (special hidden pockets and cubby holes).
I'll get to the rest come crunch time.

Good luck in Burlington...I did that marathon in 2000 and I loved the course, the people and the support. Someone placed a life size cardboard cut out of Bill Clinton at the 24 mile mark...the sign next to it said. "only one more mile..........now would I lie to you?"
Again, good luck.

Thanks, Dave!

I ran it in 2005, and had a great experience as well.

Right now the weather projections are Low 53º High 79º, a bit warm, but if it stays below 70 while we are running, it shouldn't be too bad.

Haven't run a marathon in a year and a half, so I'm a bit excited.

Thanks, Kevin.
Going downstairs is still a bit tough on the quads. Managed a few miles today.
