Event: Philadelphia Marathon
Category: Marathon
Date: Sunday, November 23, 2008

Signed up with my brother. This will be our second marathon we run together. First one being the Walt Disney Marathon back in January which was really fun running thru all four theme parks! This will be his second marathon and my third (I ran the Flying Pig Marathon back in 2003) This is a more serious marathon unlike the Disney one were we stopped every mile to take pictures with the likes of Aladdin, Ariel, Cinderella, Alice, Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, Darkwing Duck, Buzz lightyear, Woody, Rafiki, tweedle dee and tweedle dum, Jasmine, Mary Poppins, Jack Sparrow, Piglet, White Power Ranger, Chip n Dale, Baloo and King Louie.

Goals for Philly

Goal 1: Run up Rocky steps

I finally picked up Metal Gear Solid and its a great game. The cutscences run like 15-20mins? Not a bad thing but eventually I put down my controller and just watch. This movie/game is really good so far.

Ok, it wasnt planned that way at first.

First, a series of "weird" events happened at work that pretty much force me to use up vacation time before Aug 13th or I lose them. Ok, no big deal I thought so I start talking up ideas with my brother on what we should do, Cedar Point came up and the NFL Hall of Fame. Then bad news came, he cant get off work no earlier than Aug 14th! What are the chances of that?! And I'm not about to fly off somewhere by myself. So I'll have July 15th-17th off, basically getting paid to watch E3 here on GameSpot. Those days I plan on pigging out on some not-so-healthy food. So far its chicken wings with some goose and cran.

Any suggestions on food/drinks for my "Getting Paid to watch E3 on GameSpot with my pants off"?
