Will be on the lookout - glad you posted this! I'll probably be wearing my Oiselle singlet and some arm warmers, black capris. (Same outfit as my FB profile pic.) Hope I see you guys!

Ha ha.. it's really hopeful wishing!! I can tell you the mile ten waterstop with the mid pack runners is usually craaaazzzyyy!  I am going to try to be on the right side of the road at a table closer to the end than then front.. but who knows.. You may need to be on the look out for us!  That's probably easier!  There are 70 of us and 30,000 of you!

If I know you'll be past the front pack where everyone stops first, that will help me know where to look (if I even have my wits about me at that point) so I will definitely try! It's my first time in a race this big, so who knows, but I'm glad to at least know you'll be out there, even if I don't manage to see you.

Look for me on Front Street between Miles 3-4, left side.  I'll be near the South Philly Striders signs which you can't miss.

we have 110 volunteers, LOL. I will most likely be wearing a long purple down coat and have a 5 year old in tow :D

I'll be the lady with brown hair running in a blue-ish singlet and maybe a hat.  :D   See you out there!

I'm hoping I can be as good as all of those New York volunteers!

Caito, from the daily run posts it sounds like you're really well trained.  So kick some ass!

I've run Philly four times from 2002 to 2008 and always enjoyed it.  Maybe I'll be back someday.

Oh right, fun!

Had a good talk with my coach late yesterday, and he did how much fun it is to run a good race. And he said I'm ready for it.

Thanks, everyone!

I just finish my shake out run.  Legs are feeling good! Philly is an awesome city.  Love Old City! 

I will continue to debate about what to wear though.  It really looks like it will be in the 40s during the race, not getting into the 50s til after 12pm.  At home I always wear sleeves in the 40s.  So, long sleeve shirt?  Or singlet and arm warmers?  Will that be warm enough?  My singlet is way cooler than my long sleeve.  :D  I might go get a light long sleeve to throw away a few miles in.
