This time next week, I will (hopefully) be strutting (or hobbling) around a theme park, weighed down by some golden bling eating all the things and taking all the selfies. Pictures or it didn't happen, right? It's all come down to now. Talk about pressure. I've been training ...
marathon training
weekly recap: 12/28 – 1/3
