Super Nan ?
A few facts:
1) I was officially accepted into the Boston Marathon. Only 5 more months and I get to experience an immense amount of suffering...again. Awesome.
2) I set a new Marathon PR. Barely, but I’ll take it.
3) I won a plate, a cup, a medal and $100 US. If you’re asking yourself how did this happen? Does Nan’s new and improved thicker outer layer have super hero properties? Nope. A) The race is small, 200 people small. B) No fast, or even remotely fast, females decided to show up. However, if you would like to call me Super Nan, I am not entirely opposed.
4) An hour after the marathon, I hit the wall...full tilt. Lucky for me, after a marathon, full tilt is not so full.
5) I became very fond of and intimate with a small town America pizza parlor toilet. I believe I have fact #4 to thank for this.
6) Craven Menthol cigarettes have very effective post marathon healing properties. I am not at liberty to reveal my source, just take my word for it.
7) Small town America Hotels have closing hours. We “just missed” our room in Placerville CA. “Oh quick, we better hurray, or we’ll miss our hotel”. Who knew?
8) The american love affair with Battleship, intriguing. A restaurant on the intersection of 3 and f, and power bars in aisle 3 E. BTW: 3 F, "HIT!".
9) The combination girl/boy bathrooms are huge here. It is my opinion that the combination girl/boy bathrooms quickly develop all the charming qualities of the traditional boy bathroom (smelly, dirty, etc). I hope the girl/boy bathroom does not get a foot hold in Canada.
