Even though the forecast for race day tomorrow is for 2 degrees and ice pellets, I am:
-driving two hours tonight, from my vacation in Sarasota to Orlando
-crashing on the sofabed in my buddy Bob’s Disney hotel room
-getting up at 3:00 a.m. to get ready
-boarding a monorail (It glides as softly as a cloud) from the Disney hotel at no later than 4:00
-arriving at the start line at no later than 4:15 for a 5:40 race
-standing in the cold in a sweatshirt and fleece pajama bottoms (with wolf design) I purchased yesterday at Target
-running a half-marathon when it’s 2 degrees and ice pellets, as mentioned above
-driving two hours back to Sarasota after the race to briefly resume my vacation
