Well, the day of the Chickamauga Battlefield Marathon has finally come. The clock shows 2 minutes and 5 seconds til race time. It was a brisk, cool morning, with a race time temperature of 45 degrees at 7:30am. That's too cold for my liking, as I like to run in the hot afternoons, but I was more than ready to begin this my first race.
There were a total of 1,222 participants in this race, 551 runnning the marathon (26.2 miles), and 671 of us "slackers" running the half marathon (13.1 miles). Continue to scroll down and follow along as I give you a chronological account of my day.
