Last night, Amber and I headed to Champaign to pick up our bib numbers for the Illinois (Half) Marathon!
We ate our pre-race dinner after getting our goody bag:

hummus + pita, and Veggie burger + orzo from Houlihans (so good!!)
And now I’ve got my gear ready, my running clothes on, my playlist made, and my coffee downed. The only thing I’m not to keen on is the wind this morning.
Remember this? Yep. It’s another Niko-blowing-windy-day. Not great conditions to run a half marathon!
Oh well! See you at the finish! Ahhh!!









Good luck today!
Good Luck Paige!!
Good luck, Paige! Don’t let the wind get you down!!!
Good luck Paige!!!!!! Hope it isn’t too windy for ya
I’ll be cheering you on while I’m doing my long run this morning (and not in a creepy way or anything hahaha)
Run like the wind, Paige!!! Sorry, I just had to say it!
No matter what your time is, be proud of what you have accomplished, how far you have come and how much you still have in store.
Have a great race!
Good luck! I think veggie burgers make really good pre-race fuel. Nice combo of carbs and protein (and delicious-ness).
