"Forum Encounter"

After picking up my stuff at the marathon expo, I drove the course. People claim this makes the race less intimidating. It took a full hour to drive the course in a car, and I still felt intimidated. In the early evening, I got to "carbo-load" at Spaghetti Warehouse with Ross (Ross33) and Glen (ZubenElGenubi) from the RWOL forums. Both have run marathons before, and it turns out that Ross has done more than 30. Wow!
