Ready to Run 20 miler

Done. I'm very stiff, but very glad the race is done. Only 3 more weeks til my final Chicago Marathon - 10-10-10. I'm a big fan of PopChips. Free samples at the finish line...great idea. Ok. I have to study for my exam...

Worst Movie...Ever

There are many "Worst Movie...Ever" but I have to point out that Matrix Revolution is very bad. When I first saw the green alphanumeric shower on black, I though oooh red v blue pill time. Uhh, it wasn't 1 or 2. I definitely never saw 3 in the theatre and definitely glad I never did after seeing 5 minutes of Revolution.

It does make great background noise while I study for the first exam of my FINAL semester of graduate school!

Go easy on the detergent in dishwashers and washing machines, and never clean your oven the day before Thanksgiving.

Marathon

I'm training with CARA (www.cararuns.org) for the Chicago Marathon. Honestly, I haven't had the time to follow the training schedule. However, I ran the 18 miles today with the 10:00 pace group. Actually, we run around 9:45. I couldn't keep up that pace more than probably 16 miles and had to return to the 10 min pace. Luckily, I had someone to slow down and run with. Anyway, while down at 67th street, I had to Gu - Espresso Love. I looked at it and gagged. I mean eyes watering, burps, etc - true gagging. If I don't look, i'm ok.
