2 weeks and counting

Less then two weeks until Jay and I travel to Chicago. I feel like I'm ready to go and that it will be a fun time for us. We will get to see some family and friends that we haven't seen in awhile. Plus, we will be enjoying the city for a weekend and get away from our work and the desert (The best part). I got my race brochure in the mail last week (Yes the Chicago Marathon sends race brochures). I can't wait to go to a expo that has more then three vendors and also run a race that has more then 5,000 runners. I feel like I will spend more time taking pictures then worrying about splits and times. Hopefully that causes me to run faster then I think and not worry about how sore my legs are becoming (haha). I keep overlooking the race course and I try to think about which spots will be the best places to take pictures of the people running and the experience. I'm not sure how much I will actually think about it or remember to take the pictures! Well, hopefully the experience is just as exciting as I'm making it out in my head to be! We shall see!
