we haven’t even gotten to 6 months to the half, and already she’s sending me this… i am especially excited about the expo, pre-race, although it doesn’t seem to mention the princess-y topics i would expect:
- what to do while waiting for your prince
- drapery or ball dress – you decide!
- how to speak small furry forest animal in three easy lessons
please GOD tell me i still have more than 6 months till the half…..

You love me and you know it! I figure that if the half doesn’t kill us in January, we’ll be fine 8 weeks later for another half. And we can walk the whole darn thing if you want, I just want the tiara race medal!

Hi, I’m going down to run this too. I’m kind of excited about it but it’s only 9-10 weeks away now and I’m just not sure I’m ready.
