2 measly miles, but the last ones I'll run before Saturday. Getting packed, think I have everything ready. It's a bit nerve wracking never having done a trail race but from everything I've read this is an A+ race and with there being a 100 miler in the mix the aid stations should be fabulous.

My oldest son came down with the stomach flu today, coming out both ends (nasty) so hopefully I'll avoid it. He hasn't been sick like this in years, so wouldn't it just be my luck.... Here's to hoping.
