are booked! Can you believe it? It’s 5.5 months out and the Queen of Procrastination and her entourage actually have a place to stay. Will wonders never cease? 
I found us a 1 bedroom suite with a king size bed. It has a seperate living area, and I figure I can sleep on the couch bed the night before the race so the boys can sleep late. It’s at Hallmark Suites in Rancho Cordova. I wanted to be closer to the start line, but this as the best deal I could find. We’re still only 15 minutes or so away (30-45 if you count the loiklihood of race day traffic). But it’s also only about 20 minutes away from the finish. I’m also looking into the rail system, since there’s a station only 2 minutes from the hotel. It would be nice if we could use that rather than making Eric take me down there with the boys that early in the morning.

I’m excited! It definitely feels more real now. Although the down side of that is………..it definitely feels more real now! 
I told Eric that I want this trip to be my Christmas present. It’s the right time of year, and man!, these destination marathons can get expensive!
