The pride of Kenya

It's time to taper! Eat a lot, run a little and make crucial wardrobe decisions which will be overturned race morning. That is, if you are participating in this year's Boston Marathon.
I (and the rest of the Kenya B team), am not actually in the run this year. The postpartum stress incontinence is over with for everyone, true enough. So what's the excuse now? Oh, yeah. That whole training through the mean months of winter thing. Shit.
That means we can't really do any of those fun taper activities, which has given me a full on case of the sads. I will treat this by listening to Pink Floyd's "The Wall" over and over again in a darkened room taking breaks to watch Sophie's Choice and Resivior Dogs. That alway helps so much! Pass the beef jerky and the tissues please.
