Change of Pace - Phase II

I need to run fast. I need to run light. Yeah right. So in preparation for my third marathon I shaved my head today. It's interesting to feel the cool breezes, and I'm so glad I'm no longer a fake redhead (or crushed garnet-head). So I've gone from a red-do to a no-do in two weeks. Will such changes ever stop? Yup - this is enough.In the next one you can see my faint 3-inch circular scar from brain surgery above my right ear.I've now taken up wearing a black ski hat to keep my head warm. I hope marathon day is warm or I'm gonna freeze. Now I've got every reason to run "screamingly" fast from start to finish, because I'm a lean mean running machine. Wish me luck!
