Best pre-race snack: At the Team 2 End Aids tent (I think that's what it was. I could be wrong. It was early) where I helped myself to a scoop of peanut butter and some coffee.
Best sign: You guys are all really good at exercise. (Can't make this stuff up)
Most disturbing t-shirt sighting: A woman in a t-shirt with the Girl Scout symbol on the front and pictures of Thin Mints and Tagalongs on the back where it read "We've got the cookies. You bring the milk." (You can make this stuff up...if you're perverted)
Post-race burger report card: Four thumbs up - mine and H's - for Kuma's Korner. I got the Clutch. H got the Metallica. It was so good, it made me reconsider my annual burger rule for a moment.
Today, I am grateful ~
1/ That this race was definitely not my personal best but I finished.
2/ And, I never walked. Although, at certain times, I was running so slow that Betty White would have called me a wimp...and then ran past me.
3/ To all of the volunteers, especially the water and Gatorade people. Sorry if I bumped/splashed/accidentally shoved any of you. I had to see a man about a burger.
