      See, Dave?  I didn't talk for like 2 pages as they were talking about a topic very foreign to me.  It was 82F during my run tonight and that's cold for here. 

       

      My 6 and weights sucked.  I forgot to use my albuterol and I really need it lately.

        You should try weather.com.

         

        Do your feet really get cold? I wear the same socks year round, my feet only get cold when I'm running through slush. I'd think you'd want to go with the shoe/sock combo that worked for LR's in training.

          weather.gov is more accurate than weather.com, IMO.

                Eh, I think I have poor circulation in my feet  so I really don't know what they feel like, but when I rub them up against hubby at night he screams because they're freezing cold. You guys are about to see a major freak out though, every summer I forget what winter felt like, all the layering I had to do, and usually nature is nice enough to give me a few days to get back in the swing of it... but oh no, not for my first 26.2   (and no this isn't really about the feet now) but at least I have all 3 pairs of gloves - my thin ones for style and things between 30-45, my really thick ones for those 10below temps and then my perfectly inbetweeners which I am not sure if I can successfully unzip my back pocket and pull out one of 3 gu's without dropping it or slowing down.... of course I could pull one glove off,.

                This is complete utter BULLSHIT, my training did not have any of these needs involved.... I am more prepared for a humid hot marathon then I am for a freaking cold marathon. But I have to go bitch somewhere else because I know a lot of people here are sick of hearing about it.

                  By the way, my bib number is 2813... they don't go by first come first serve??? Because I registered at midnight Indy time (11 PM Evansville time) and I was hoping for a low number

                            Most races have no rhyme or reason for the bib numbers.

                              Three miles on a hotel treadmill after walking around the National Mall/Smithsonian Institution all day.  It felt ok.  I'll run outside tomorrow.
