I found out my Bib Number for the Boston Marathon today.
While not as woefully unprepared as I have been in certain other marathons, I will not be attempting a new PR.* Since I have been looking forward to Boston for a long time, I can use the excuse that I want to enjoy my run, rather than obsess about my time. I believe this cover will work until mile 22 when I no longer appear to be having fun.
Fortunately, my qualifying time puts me rather near the front of the pack. That means nearly 17,000 runners will have the chance to pass me if I crash and burn. How's that for motivation?
*Personal Record, or that arbitrary number that only one person in the world ever cares about - thyself.

Just imagine a gigantic spike-armoured rhino chasing after you. That might help. Oh, and Good Luck!!
