... and I'm running the Lincoln Marathon on Sunday!That's right. I was mentally in the marathon, and then I was out, and then I wanted to be in but it was sold out, but now I'm REALLY IN! WOO HOO!
For one day only this weekend, I'm Sarah, the 23 year old, size medium, from Lincoln Nebraska. Nice to meet you.
(I feel like I'm 19 and trying to memorize fake ID information. Quick- what's your date of birth? Address? Hair color? Are you an organ donor?)
Thank you Sarah's friends for getting married this weekend in Iowa and drawing her out of town. Now I just need to detox from the obscene amount of M&Ms I've consumed the last week to make myself feel better. I also need to get my mind marathon-ready since I've kept up with the running, but slacked on all the stretching, nutrition, rest and other mental parts leading up to a race. So much to do.
This has been a red letter day for a bunch of different reasons, but life is going really well for this lady today!
(Yes, I'm still searching for a bike with a few exciting prospects. I have a couple friends on the prowl, and apparently the one thing bike people love more than biking is searching for bikes for other people. I need to this kind of service in all aspects of my life.)

Hi Sarah! M&M's are definitely taper food. Glad you found a last minute entry - wahoo!
Good luck Sarah...i hope you run super fast and super well on Sunday 'cause someone is looking for a marathon PR! (And if you get it, will you get your name officially changed...you know, just for it to be 'official'?)
Whoo hoo "Sarah!" Good luck!
Yay...you go, Sarah! Truth be told, I was really disappointed for you...so glad you managed to get in.
Yay. Can't wait to hear about it!!!
WOW! lol. i was once "Vineet from India" to get into the Boston College gym with Elliot. pretty sure they didn't look at the pic.
Sarah, it is lovely to make your acquaintance. I wish you the best of luck in your marathoning endeavors.
That's really cool that your company designed the bridge - are you an engineer?
Great news on the race! Can't wait to hear about it.
I declared m&m's the ideal taper food on this trip, after I found them at our hotel buffet ice cream station... the ice cream didn't interest me so much, but the toppings hit the spot :)
Yay! Go 'Sarah'! :)
Awesome! Good luck withdrawing from the M&Ms!

Hey so glad to hear you got in! Sunday May 3rd, 2009 marathoners rock!
Running a race bandit style. You will do great because there is not a ton of pressure. Have fun this week and remember that tapering is overrated and for the birds!!
I love this! Good luck "Sarah."
You're sneaking into the marathon?
I'M TELLING MOM!1! You'll be SO grounded!
I can be bought off. But if you don't even TRY to buy my silence, I'll make your life a living hell.
Remember, "Sarah" is just "Harass" (mis)spelled backwards!
So if you're "Sarah", I'll be backwards-Sarah!
Unless you pay up!
Yay!! Congratulations "Sarah"!
I'm glad you made it in! Go SARAH!
Truth be told, I always thought you looked like a Sara. No H though. Congrats on getting in!
Awesome! Glad you scored a spot!

YAY! I'm so happy for you. Here's to good news happening to "Sarah"!
You'll totally kick ass because you are going in free from stress and looking to have some fun.
Don't make a fool of me.
WOOHOO!!! Good luck, Sarah :)
My very good friend Micha is running the Lincoln Marathon with her sister, too!!! Good luck this weekend!!! Wow, how exciting! :-)

Sweet ... you're going all spy mode out there. Very cool. Have fun!
We just realized my brother never signed up for the half on Sunday. He thought he did but it must not have went through. Do you know of any males that signed up but dont plan to race the half or full? Thanks so much!
wooooo :) have fun this weekend and good luck!
Good luck "Sarah."
Wooooohooo.. Nice to meet you Sarah. You are going to have a blast. I wish you all the best in the marathon. Just remember, enjoy every minute of it.
You got this race in the bag "sarah"!
Good Luck at Lincoln!
And good luck finding a bike.
