Today was my first ever race expo.

It. Was. Crowded.

It took an hour just to get into the parking lot.

Lame.

Needless to say, by the time I got inside I just wanted to pick up my stuff and leave. I had already worked all day.

The pick up for my badge, timing chip, bag, and t-shirt was super easy…so that made things better.

I decided to take a quick spin around the expo to check some stuff out.

I had this magic Cliff electrolyte shot that tasted great. I swear I felt instantly hydrated…and I had to pee just 15 minutes later. LOL.

I also adored the Odwalla smoothies. I grabbed a full size one to have with a simple pre-race breakfast in the morning.

After the expo I ran into Target. For some athletic socks and some food for tonight/tomorrow.

The salad will go with the lasagna I planned for tonight, and I grabbed the blueberry bagels to go with the strawberry cream cheese in my fridge. Seems like a quick simple pre-run breakfast.

I also might try my hand at some overnight oats for after the race.

I love my race shirt. I can already tell how perfect it will be for running. And how cute is the race bib? Cool stuff, all in all.

Now for my last slice of veggie pizza (with pepperoni) to hold me over until dinner (I had such an early lunch today I was starving by the time I got home).

Mark is out with the boys so I am going to go enjoy some alone time now.

PS: I promise I am almost done with my WonderCon: Day Two post. It’s a monster. I might need to learn how to condense.
