This should be the easy Part...Right?
I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth, there just hasn't been much to write about lately on the running front. I had a good taper with some decent workouts mixed in with some light and easy running. If it wasn't for the weather, I'd be stepping to the line ultra-confident that a PR will be coming. Unfortunately, the weather does look like it is going to play a part in Sunday's effort.
Right now, the forecast calls for temps in the 70's and humid. As I've pointed out many times in this blog, I don't like humidity. At this point, the plan is not change strategies. I still think that I can run my race despite the warmer than normal conditions. If I can't, I guess I'll say that I gave it a good shot.
Of course all this internal debating could become a mute point, if baby #4 decides to make an appearance on Saturday night/Sunday morning. Last Saturday, Kelly went in for a routine 36 week check-up and without getting too much into the nitty gritty details, the doctor told her that she shouldn't stray too far from home in the next week or two...baby is coming. Soon. So we'll see how that goes.
So lots to think about, and not a lot I can do about either one. That's the marathon for you.

Greg, best of luck for a smooth delivery and a great marathon. Um, just make sure the order is switched, ok?
I'm hoping the marathon gods smile and push aside the humidity for a day, but regardless, you've done the work and you deserve a great race.
Well that ought to make you run faster!
Good Luck with the marathon, as well as the baby. You'll manage both, I'm sure.
