I remember the guy passing out glasses of beer at mile 23 or 24 when I ran Grandma's.
I was soooo tempted. But, I waited until I was finished.
Thinking back, I should have drank it.

Yep, I'm officially in taper hypochondriac mode - things hurt that didn't hurt before, and I'm sure I'm coming down with a cold
My goals for this marathon are to not hurl on the nice volunteer handing out the finishers medals (redeeming myself from the near miss in my last marathon ) and feeling well enough to enjoy a beer in the beer garden at the finish (oh, and just maybe, a sub 4 time, but the first two goals are more important!)
Good luck to everyone else running this weekend!

Yup...still jumpy with all that taper stuff..starting carbo loading tomorrow, that should be fun.
heading out for an easy group run tonight with a local run club to ease the anxiety.
I'll be leaving for Victoria on Saturday morning with a friend via car and ferry, who's running it as well and won't be back till Monday evening.
Good luck everyone else!
