Totally love the new kicks! Have a fun run and good luck! I am so happy to see you back to your old running self after all the stuff you went through with your foot! Rock the 1/2!

I'd say good luck, but I'm sure the race is long over by now. Can't wait to hear about it! I'm having the same hydration debate about my marathon next Sunday. I don't like to carry water in races, but I'm not sure about the aid station spacing in this race.

Good luck and have fun!! Down here in SA water at...

Good luck and have fun!!

Down here in SA water at water stations are given in little sealed plastic sachets, so none of it goes up the nose :) . I never carry my own water at a race, but have heard that some runners from other countries complaining about our sachet system - I guess we're just used to it?

When I'm just doing training runs, I set my iPod to Autofill. It's always fun to see what pops up. (Hello, Macarena! LOL)

I've never carried my own water during a race. I always just walk through the aid station when I need something because I can't run and drink at the same time. So to keep the local paper from having to print "Local runner drowns on race course" as a headline, I walk.

love everything about your fitsnap photo! I wore an armband when I FIRST started running (hated the cord moving with my arms), then I upgraded to a spibelt. Wasn't a big fan of that belt either as I it would always bounce unless worn on my side hip. For past 2.5 years I've had the ifitness belt with bib holder and LOVE it. I don't feel it on and even better is I don't ever have to safety pin a bib on anymore!

Smart to hold back on trying the shoes out too much on race day! Best of luck this weekend!

One of my favorite things about running in skirts is the pocket on the thigh. I can stick my phone there and not worry about it. I can't remember the last time I wore my arm band...
