One week to go for my first marathon

I feel excited. Today I told Irina it was just 6 months ago in Jakarta, when I said to her: "Now it is time for a marathon". Now, 6 months later it becomes reality. One week to go. I am confident to get the distance finished. How long was it again? I forget it all the time. Maybe my brain doesn't like to remember the 42.195 kilometres (26 miles 385 yards). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marathon

By all means I have to prepare:
1. my body: stretching every day from now on
2. organize the travelling (print out hotel, route, flight, ...)
3. mentally: go through the race distance again.

To quote John Maynard Keynes (1883–1946), British economist:
"In the long run we are all dead."

cheers, Tim
