Chapter 1: Always on the Run--Countdown to the LA Marathon

Seven days left and I'm feeling kind of zen and chill about this whole marathon-- which is nice because my natural state is lazy so zen, lazy's cousin, is a welcome feeling.

You're reaching me on a great day, my favorite day! No, not a Monday, a rest day!  0 miles. Sleeping in. Good times.

Tomorrow morning is a four-miler and the fake early summer we've been having is leaving just in time for marathon week. 

For now, admire my shoes (above). 

And for those of you not running the marathon, here is a link that will answer why you will probably be late for brunch on Sunday: LA MARATHON STREET CLOSURES
