Hey Nigel -- good to see you back here.
Thanks. It does seem to have gone on a long time. About 3 years, you might say, as that was when I last did a marathon. Just a single week left now, so nothing much more I can do apart from avoiding the obvious mistakes like overdoing the carbs. Is it just me, or is carbo-loading a bit over-rated? Might make more sense for the skinny guys perhaps.
I'm looking forward to another yankathon. You were there to share the experience of the last one of course, and I'm hoping this one will be just as memorable. I'm expecting another great expo and frenetic crowd support. The Boston course is more demanding than Chicago, so I'm gonna need that crowd to drag me up the hills.
The support on here is just as important though, so once again -- thanks. I'll look forward to reliving some of it over a beer or two in the summer, by which time the tale will have improved yet further.
When are we going to see another Nigel marathon?
