Dad and I went to the Rock n Roll Seattle expo center on Friday to get my bob number and all the swag! I didn't stick around for the Portland expo last month so this time I didn't want to miss out! I love the Brooks tech tshirts for this one they have allot more graphics than the Portland one. I got a cool zip up jacket as well that matches my long sleeve one from Portland and a 13.1 car sticker! Proud to be a halfer :) We also walked through all the booths and got so much free stuff including headbands, snacks, energy supplements, protein supplements...I almost wanted to get a pair if new shoes since at the expo they can $40 $50 dollars off!!! But I resisted...tonight I'm just trying to relax I'm drinking allot less water than last race to not over dilute my blood and I ate a big lunch instead of a big dinner. Hopefully tomorrow ill be better than Portland. I also changed up my shoes, leaving my cushioned ones at home and brought my minimal Frees, I run so much better in my Frees! I risk joint pain during a long run and toenail damage since they fit snug instead of a half size bigger which is ideal but the cushioned shoes are too stiff and pull my legs. So. Wish me luck!
The Rock n Roll Seattle Half is this coming Saturday and I'm getting nervous!! I've been clocking in some faster mikes under 9 min! But this weather has been insane lately and I have to prep for rain and sun! I've never flown to do a race this will be allot of firsts including my first outside of Oregon!!! Yikes!!! |
