I’m in Maine!!
After a 4.5 hour train ride and a 2-hour bus ride, I got in around 9pm last night.
We stopped at Amato’s on the way back to grab sandwiches, and I got the chicken pesto. After a long day of travel, I was starving.
We woke up this morning and went for a quick three-mile run before packet pickup.
Packet pickup was a little town hall.
This is, by far, the smallest packet pickup I’ve ever seen.
Because there are less than 300 people running this race! (Making it also, the smallest race I will have ever run.)
But for such a small race, the t-shirts aren’t bad! Tech tees for the win. (Also, hey Lindsay back there. Yes, I will be blogging this.)
OH YES.
We went to lunch at Portland Lobster Company, and I was an incredibly happy lady.
Lobster? Eating on the water? OH YES.
Lindsay, Lizzy and me
Our buzzers were lobster-shaped. I am seriously in love.
Oh sweet lobster and butter.
Afterwards, we walked around downtown Portland for bit and did some shopping. (I bought Bailey a stuffed lobster.)
Mom, I bet you’d like this place.
And then we went to the beach at Pine Point. Lobster and beach in one day!??!?!
And now it’s time to carb-load. I LOVE LIZZY.

We used to have a cabin in Maine and would go every summer when I was a kid. My mom sold it when I was like 13 though. I miss it.
Good luck in your race!
Portland looks lovely. I was born in Maine, but moved away when I was three; I'd love to go back and enjoy the sites. Good luck at your race!
