1. What comfort item are you bringing?
I haven’t thought about this! Is this a thing? Like, maybe just a pillowcase full of cocaine? Or maybe i’ll borrow a couple kittens and put it in a pillowcase for 47 hours? I guess maybe I’ll have a pillowcase for definite.
2. What about the marathon most excites you?
To be in Austin and play with fun people!
3. What about the marathon most scares you?
I love sleep more than I love my mother. I’m scared my mother will find that out.
