T minus Five days

Can someone please do something about the weather? Conditions will be perfect all week (clear, calm, in the 50s) but now the forecast is for rain all weekend. Sucks.

I'm mostly ready. My foot still hurts, but I can run on it. I did a final 12-miler on Sunday, including the last five at race pace. All systems go. My biggiest concern now is that the two weeks of idle time I had last month will haunt me around mile 21. The dreaded Wall looms large. I only did one 20-miler in training and that will have been five weeks before race day. History tells us that often the distance of your longest training run is the spot in race where you crash. We'll see.

One last thing: anyone know if there will be a FitArlington get together after the race? What happens once thing is over? Does this blog disappear?
