one day to go

Posted April 24th, 2010 by Rachael and filed in Uncategorized

Got my chip on my trainers

Got my number on my t-shirt

Got a gin and tonic.

I know it’s not exactly orthodox, but my legs are shaking so much that I need to steady my nerves. After that I’ll go back on the Lucozade Sport and the water. I promise.

Waiting in the bar of the hotel (which is even more gorgeous than the photos promised) for Zoe to arrive. This evening we’re going to eat pasta, watch television and be lazy.

I saw the BBC advert for the marathon earlier and it suddenly hit me. Tomorrow I’m fulfilling one of my ambitions and running in the London Marathon. I can’t quite believe it.

Just to remind you, you can follow our progress here:

Just put in my race number which is 40031. Run the marathon with me from the comfort of your couch.

Come to think of it, why don’t you run the marathon for me and I’ll go and sit on your couch?
