Hi, LIFER's Team!

We are down to just a couple weeks of training before the two week taper leading up to race day! Let's stay focused on our training plan, take care of our injuries, and encourage each other to the starting line. Our preparation, smart race plan and the excitement of the event will get us to the finish line! Now for the final logistics...

Meals:
* Friday night: We will do a search and destroy for food on Friday night...preferably walking distance from the hotel (1000 Drury Ln, Oakbrook Terrace, IL).

* Saturday morning: Free hotel breakfast begins at 7 AM. We will depart for the Expo at 9 AM, allowing people to sleep in.

* Saturday night: Angi's college roommate (Pam) volunteered to host us for the Prerace Meal (the price is right, not greasy restaurant food, served at the right time). The plan is to arrive to Pam's home between 4 to 5 PM, eat at 5:30 PM, and depart by 7:30 PM. She lives at 13538 Capista Dr, Plainfield, IL 60544 (about 30 min from our hotel). Here is the Prerace Meal guest list (please let me know of changes): Shannon family (4), Pat/Angi, Bill/Pam, Steve/Tina, Scott, Kevin, Rich, Courtney, Chad, Ben, Doug/Kerry.

* Sunday lunch: Chad Livingston is organizing a delivered meal to our designated meeting spot after the race. The meeting spot is still to be determined. Suggestions?

Lodging: booked rooms at Hilton Garden Inn Oakbrook
* Shannon family: booked (under John)
* Pat, Angi, Courtney: booked (under Pat)
* Chad, Ben: booked (under Chad)
* Steve, Tina: booked (under Pat)
