We're heading to the one in Canton. I just told Ray you guys were going to the one in Grand Rapids and he's like it's only a 4 hour drive, .... but we already ordered our tickets LOL But nice to know he can be talked into a longer drive for another time :thumbsup2

I can't wait to see it. I'll be taking along tissues. But if we are watching a movie on a running and exercise is it really appropriate for me to eat popcorn drenched in butter? :rotfl: or should i take a long a couple of Sport Bean paks, at least it's candy meant for running LOL

I'm really looking forward to tomorrow night. My last 2 weeks of work have been so stressful I was going over the edge. I can't wait to sit back and be reminded of why I need to be in the gym even when I get down from a bad day at work.

Diane, I actually thought the same thing - would it be bad of me to buy popcorn? :lmao:

Good points on the popcorn!

I'll have DH standing so to block me from view as I pour on the butter popcorn::

A snickers should be ok too since there is the Snickers Marathon :thumbsup2

Ok now on to what everyone is wearing. I'm wearing my ToT race sweatshirt :laughing: I will force myself to leave the bling to home.

Bring on the movie!!!! :3dglasses

I think we should do teh bling! If we were going to the same theater, I might. ;)

Hmmm....Think I'll wear my marathon shirt. WIsh it was warm enough to go with my wind jacket from 07.

Checked my local listings. The Spirit of the Marathon is on in my area Kalamazoo Michigan at the Goodrich Kalamazoo 10 tonight at 7:30pm - so I canceled my other plans and will go.

I went to the Spirit of the Marathon site twice and my computer locked up both times :confused3

The Movie was Great...what an inspiration. I liked it that they highlighted several average people, not just the elite runners

It was very inspirational :) I was at the edge of my seat silently yelling for Deanna wishing I had brought my cow bell LOL I was frantically trying to remember if she won that one or not LOL

I loved seeing the runners from overhead. We stayed after too but I thought they'd have Deanna and Ryan talking more.

I do wish they would show it on TV some day. Susan and Cathy couldn't make it and I'm sure they'd enjoy seeing it and sharing it with their DHs.

BTW, I saw a sign in the Marathon that said "Steve is fast" and I thought of our Steve and thought why yes he is. Apparently Steve you have fans waiting to catch a glimpse of you at races :rotfl:

WISHed you were all there but thought of you all especially knowing some of you were sitting down at 7:30 with me to watch it, just maybe a few miles away :)

Night!!!
