It is the day before Queen City Marathon and I’m getting pretty excited! This morning I went to the Running Room to get my pace rabbit gear and met fellow pace rabbits. As well, we had the opportunity to hear John Stanton, the founder of the Running Room and best selling author speak and motivate us for tomorrow’s run.
I also had the opportunity to met several girls who will be following me at tomorrow’s marathon. Most of them were running their first marathon and were nervous, but I reassured them, that it will be an unbelievable experience and you’ll be back for more!
Afterwards, the pace rabbits and fellow marathon runners ran the 3km Friendship Run. We ran from the Running Room to the Legislative Building. From there they took several pictures of all of us standing in front of the Legislative Building.
Can you guess where I am? I’ll give you a hint. I’m in the middle with rabbit ears. Can you see me now?
Then they took a picture of all the pace rabbits volunteering at the marathon.
You probably can see where I am now…right? Can you tell that I am the only girl whose a pace rabbit? What is up with that? LOL
After the Friendship Run, we went back to the Running Room to have refreshments. Refreshments were water, bagels with cream cheese (carb loading!!!) and fruit. Yummmm…I didn’t get a picture of the food because I opted to get a picture with John Stanton!
I was so excited because I’m standing next to an actual celebrity! Well, celebrity in the running world! LOL!
I didn’t even think of bringing my very first book of running written by him. If I would’ve brought it, he could’ve signed it. But he ended up signing my rabbit ears hat!
Very exciting stuff! Anyways, tomorrow will be Queen City Marathon and I’m hoping that I can get some really good pictures! For the rest of the day, I’m going to be stretching and carb loading for tomorrow’s run! See you tomorrow!
