Boma?

Well, Lani and I will be there. I'm sure Lani will be eating at Boma. I'm not sure how long we'll be there but if long enough I hope to fit in another trip to Plant City, Florida, ("winter strawberry capital of the world") for what may be the world's largest strawberry shortcake intended for individual consumption. If we do and you're still around you're welcome to join us.

But of course! I should probably leave that until after the race.

Cool! We fly down as a group on Thursday evening I believe. I plan to extend into the week after the race so I can get in some park time. Not sure how many days at this point though. The group only stays through Monday.

I hope to be in good enough shape afterward to do fun stuff.

Even if you're not in good enough shape you will want to get out and do stuff, no matter how slowly you accomplish it.

The worst thing you can do is decide your legs are too sore and so spend the day watching TV in the hotel room. Besides, you want to get out to the parks so you can wear your medal and have people congratulate you all day.

By the way, do you know what your target time is going to be? If it is on the slower end you might talk to Lani about the Penguins. They are a group for slow runners (and some of them aren't so slow).

Right now I'm doing a run/walk with 8 min run/2 min walk. I'm averaging about 12 min/mi so far.

I would say you'll need plenty of good food to fuel your race . . .

But yeah, the buffet's probably best after strenuous activity. But then again, if you can't walk to get your food, no one's going to bring it to you.
