Wow! LOL... I've never been called princess before! I don't think it's meant as a compliment though - shucks.
Some of you out there really take yourselves very seriously. That's great and I hope you have fun with that.
I on the other hand, am much more of a live and let live type of person.
No - I am not some horrible ogre of a teacher who shows children how to break the rules and skirt the truth. I'm a Catholic schoolteacher if you must know! (lol) I can't believe the responses I've gotten on something I consider a rather small issue.
I don't plan on using my headphones so you can all calm down now. Sheesh. I think some of you have your shoes laced a little tight!

Curlyd,
The headphone debate can get pretty heated, try not to take it personally. Follow race rules and have a blast at the Marathon.

I always train with music, but never miss it when running a marathon. Chicago is huge with tons of crowd support - you won't be bored or need the music for motivation. Just write your name on your shirt and people will cheer you the whole way. Have Fun!
