Well, Angela and I are as ready as we’ll ever be. In less than ten hours, we’ll be on the way to running 26.2 miles. It’s been a long time coming (well, six months) and we are ready for it.
We went to the pre-race pasta dinner put on at the Presbyterian church just down on Monument Ave this evening. The pasta was some of the best I’ve ever had, too. Angela’s got her stuff all ready, her plans to run with her buddy for at least the first ten miles, and her iPod loaded with fun songs.
Me, I run at least half the time alone and just looking around at all the sights. One of the best parts of running is getting to notice things at street level you’d never see even from a car. Tomorrow, I’m going to take in the city of Richmond and love every minute of it. All 270 276 of them.
Best of luck Jason and Angela, I wish I had the warewithall (sp?) to endure such and adventure. I am very proud of both of you. I look forward to seeing some pictures and hear about the race.
Hey Jason & Angela… Steph & I are here up late… We’re super proud of you two for all the hard work & extensive (way more than we did) training… Have a great time in the race… I’m sure you guys are going to have a lot of stories… and most of all carry a new and rare accomplishment with you for the rest of your lives… Much love… Let’s run the next one together!
‑dave & Steph.

Do you say “Break a leg” to a runner like you would an actor? Either way there will be lots of happy people clapping for you today.
I do know what to say in this situation though… Jason, Angela…Go forth and kick ass.
