This morning, Staci and I went to pick up our race packets. It's here!!! I'm pretty nervous, but REALLY excited. The best part of races isn't the running necessarily, it's the overall atmosphere and experience.
We got our packets (the shirts are super cute. Nice tech shirts.). We got blue/yellow ribbons to pin on tomorrow. They had a huge poster for us to sign for Boston, which was so nice.
There was also an expo going on. Lots of running vendors. One of the tables was Dane Rauschenberg. He ran 52 marathons in 52 consecutive weekends. It was so amazing to meet him and chat for a bit. Turns out he has also run the Oregon coast, and he just moved to Portland. He ran through McMinnville recently on a run from Portland to Lincoln City. He has also written a few books. Reading, Running & Oregon. My 3 favorite things in life. He was my kind of guy! He signed his book for me, and you all know how I feel about book signings! LOVE! It was a great little treat.
Can't wait for tomorrow morning!
Auggie turns one!
