Tracy is here

Today, I drove to Phoenix to pick up Tracy.   Her flight came in early enough that we were able to drive up to Washington Park for a short hike .  Washington Park is a central spot on the race; runners pass through the park at miles 27, 51, and 86.   Since Tracy will be pacing me in the dark at 51 – 55 miles, she wanted to get a feel for the trail.  Also, when I arrive in the morning again at the 86 mile mark, she will walk with me the remaining 20 miles to the finish.  I’m thankful she will be there since I know how delirious I will be after going straight through for 36 hours.
