Just tsaw a tweet that Sean Astin will be in the race. You think they will make him start in Corral C? So excited....i mean I probably won't see him, but cool he is going for C2C!

I will die if I see Sean Astin!!!

You shouldn't have told me, now I'll be looking for him instead of running. I'm in B so I'll go slow and wait for him.

He'll be in C. He's pretty nice! I got to meet up and chat with him too. Super normal for a Hollywood guy.

Don't forget to go here.

and sign up for runner tracking.

This can also be done at the expo, but you can save some time by signing up now. It is not a perfect system, but can be helpful and I like to see my time shortly after the race so I send the updates to my phone and they have always been there once I return to the room (I leave my phone in the room during the race).

You look great !!!!!! I love your costume !!!

How about putting "packing" something inside your hat to help keep the shape in your luggage ??

Love it!!! Could you roll up socks or a small t-shirt to hold the shape of the hat?

joan4mickey · 02-14-2013, 08:40 AM

Thanks for the ideas for the hat. I can do that, but DH said to just wear it and wear it to the expo and get as much use as I can because I put a lot of work into it.

I was just about to say, "wear it!". Love the costume!

ITA! You look faaaabulous!

Is anyone else mildly freaking out at every minor twinge of body pain at this point?! I'm 40+ and a former dancer/soccer player/skier... some amount of body pain is my daily normal, but this race is making me all sorts of paranoid.

I sure am. Had some random knee pain at the gym this morning, now I'm thinking about canceling my last long-ish run tomorrow morning. It's not even injury-like pain, just some twinges of something. Any other time, I'd still be lacing up my shoes and running, now I'm thinking about waiting until Sunday or so and then doing one last short run mid-week.

YES !!!!!

Sciatic Nerve on my left side. I am stretching, icing, praying everything for it to quiet down.

I'm just getting really nervous about the flight. One week from now we will be in the air headed east. I really really really am not a relaxed flyer. And trying to have enough stuff to keep a 6 yr old quiet will be interesting. Oh I hope we are not the only kid family on board.

I LOVE your costume! SO CUTE! I'm worried about how I'm going to pack my costume, too -- my tutu is quite large and the whole thing has turned out to be rather...elaborate, haha.

Mommy to Two Princes · 02-14-2013, 10:52 AM

So, how does everyone actually "pack" a tutu?

I could see it taking up the entire suitcase. DH isn't going to be happy about that!

Haha my friend wants to put ours in ziplock bags. Not sure how that'll turn out.

So I'm curious about the answer to this as well!
