Less Than 24 Hours Away

I'm packing and getting ready to go to New Jersey in a few hours. The marathon is tomorrow morning at 7:30am. I'm excited and nervous. I know that I can finish it, but the distance of 26.2 miles is still daunting!

This is the website for the marathon:

Here's the map of the course. It's 2 loops, so we'll see everything twice.


I'm guessing I will be at these miles around these times. These are just guesses. I really have no idea since this is my first marathon.

Start - 7:30am - 7:40am
Mile 5 - 8:22am - 8:28am
Mile 10 - 9:12am - 9:20am
Mile 15 - 10:00am - 10:12am
Mile 20 - 10:47am - 11:03am
Mile 25 - 11:37am - 11:53am
Mile 26.2! - 11:48am - 12:07am

The weather forecast is looking pretty rotten for tomorrow. The temperature is perfect for running, but the thunderstorms aren't! I'm crossing my fingers that the rain will hold off until the afternoon.




When you wake up tomorrow morning, cheer me on from wherever you are!
