Day 3,554 —Last Run until the Shippey 100!—

I read my write-up of last year’s race last night. Now, I am wishing I included the temperature, but it was cold. Also, a guy I ran the race with last year made a video about the race, so I watch that. I am in a lot of the video because we were running together for parts of the first half.

My hair was longer and my beard froze during the first lap. It looked like I only had two layers on, and I looked comfortable.

Maybe I am overthinking this. Now, it doesn’t look that bad during the day, but the temperature will drop at night, but that doesn’t worry me as much because as long as I bring clothes to put on or use more of the disposable hand warmers, I’ll be fine.

I still haven’t finished packing. I tried out the electronic socks this morning, and they weren't what I was looking for. They have this heavy batter pack that pulled them down as I was running. They also aren’t that warm. I might keep a pair to wear around the house because they are good for that, but I can’t see myself using them for running I have enough other options. I’ll bring 10 pairs of socks, so I can change every 20 miles at least but we will see. Maybe I won’t need to.
