3 quick miles on the mill, the last of the mill miles probably for a week -- maybe. We'll see how I feel next week...

Today, we contemplate yet another (the last) of Jeff Galloway's Dirty Tricks:

The extra-special energy bar
For the marathon journey, you're not bringing just any energy bar. You spent some time the day before picking the ones with the greatest energy potential and you infused them with even more energy. Handle the pieces of these bars with care as you don't want to infuse everyone around you. As you chew on each piece and drink water, you feel the energy move from your mouth to your right brain. Then, instantly, it unlocks other pockets of energy that have been hidden until now.

Tomorrow will of course be an off (rest) day. We will go to the Expo and pick up our race packs including our bibs, chips, and shirts. I'm looking forward to that :~)

Today I will wear my GA Marathon "in training" shirt (as I did last Friday). As if I need to psych myself any more...

I spent a good amount of time last night looking over the details for the Marine Corp. Marathon in Washington DC on October 28, 2007. The hotel cost will be the biggest obstacle, we'd need to stay 2 nights. We used to have family that lived in that area -- wish we still did, although, I'm glad they are back here now. We have until May 9 to make a decision on this marathon, that's when the registration opens and I understand the registration for this one is like Peachtree -- fills up FAST! So, after Sunday's race, we will possibly consider this one.
