Hope the runners stay hydrated
April 24, 2009I just went outside for lunch and it’s pretty toasty out there, mid-80’s. Luckily not that humid but still it’s warm. Tomorrow is expected to be about the same or a little warmer. So I hope everybody who’s running the Country Music Marathon downtown remembers to stay hydrated. There will be water stations at every mile marker, for heaven’s sake use them. Drink even at the first mile marker, so you stay hydrated.
I ran a marathon a few year’s back but hydration wasn’t that big a problem. Mostly because it was raining throughout much of the run. For the Nashville marathon tomorrow no such luck - a warm sunny day is in store.
Unfortunately I won’t be in town to watch the marathon. Made plans already to be in Atlanta for a quick getaway weekend. Just two nights, tonight and Saturday night. So I’ll have to try and catch it next year.
