Tomorrow is the big day...

I wanted to do better with this whole count down to the marathon thing, but with finals, and then last night I went to blog and the site was down, I was beat, so I decided to just do a good blog today!
Its been nice resting yesterday and today. Though, I do miss running. But, I will get my fill of it tomorrow. Speaking of which, I picked up my race packet today with my number and all. #156...that just sounds like a winner...actually I don't care about winning, I am just excited to finish it. They also gave us step by step lay out of the location of each mile marker. It really made 26 miles sound like a long way :)
The original race route had to be altered a bit because the river is so high. I had a feeling that would happen. I have been watching it get higher and higher.
So today, besides resting and picking up my race packet, I have been hydrating like crazy, and eating all I could think of that is full of "healthy carbs." Because I have been drinking so much water it was really hard to "carb load" because my belly is full already! But I am more concered about getting dehydrated then running out of reserves for energy. I have plenty of back up storage :)
Anyway, if I go to sleep in the next 10 min or so then I will get a little over 8 hours of sleep before my alarm goes off.
Wish me luck! My test post will be done by someone who had completed a marathon!!
Good night!
