A friend called me beyond the last minute (I was way to leave the office) and asked me if I wanted to go out for a drink. We always have a good time together, so of course I said yes. I wound up in Papillion and had 4 beers and a plate of fried Calamari. Not the best thing to eat and drink the night before a race, but what the hell, you only live once. At least I am not as drunk as this guy sitting next to me on the train. Whenever the train starts moving again after a stop, he falls into my side. I donâ€™t mind though, I think Iâ€™ve been there before. At least he doesnâ€™t smell.</p>
<p>Tomorrow I am doing the Fred Lebow 5 miler in Central Park. I need to be at the New York Road Runners Club to pick up my race number by 7:30am. I am going to meet a friend there at this time. It should be really interesting to see if I make it in time. Itâ€™s already 9:30pm (as I write this on the subway), I havenâ€™t eaten dinner and for the life of me havenâ€™t been able to get out of bed before 8am for the past few days. I know Iâ€™ll do it, because this year is the start of the new me; the one thatâ€™s seriously training for the Vermont 100 miler.</p>
<p>Well, thatâ€™s all I have to say for now. Iâ€™ll post this entry when I get home, after I recycle some beer of course, and then eat dinner and go to bed. Iâ€™ll probably wind up driving and spring for a parking garage somewhere on the East Side. I just donâ€™t see myself waking up by 5:30am to make the subway by in time to make it to the race on time. Hey, I make enough money to splurge every once in a while. Thank G-d for that.</p>
