Friday after work I went to the Chicago Marathon expo. Β I am no longer running the marathon so why did I go? Β Just to check it out.

I want to be Mebnificent. Β I tweeted this photo to Meb and he favorited it.

Of course I had a few beer samples and purchased a bottle opener.

Cool medal for The Gasparilla Distance ClassicΒ in February. Β It is on my to do list.

I met Scott Jurek and he signed my bib. Β I said so many nice things to him and he just smiled. Β Such a humble guy.

And seriously the ugliest shirt ever! Β I know I never keep any of my race shirts but don’t think I would have even thought of keeping it.

At the end of the expo I walked out with a pair of Superfeet insoles and two Sparkly Soul headbands. So proud of myself for not spending more money. Β I thought it was a good expo but feel like compared to previous years it was much smaller. Β Or maybe in previous years I’ve purchased more stuff and felt like there were so many vendors. Β This time I quickly checked them out because there wasn’t anything that I needed.
