@ RunningRonald: Thanks...nu ben ik nog zenuwachtiger. ;)
@ Dennis: Hahaha! Well...let's just say that I (fingers crossed) barely crossed the Half Marathon mark by the time this guy already finished. ;)
You've got this.
Nerves - schmerves. Sing a "wiggle's" song - that'll ease the nerves.
Lots of beer!!

good luck on Sunday! Don't be nervous! you've done this before!! Looking forward to seeing how well you do! safe travels!
Yay!! Brooklyn is full of great crowds and 1st Ave, just over the Queensboro Bridge is just one big party! Don't let the thrill of all the spectators push your pace. It's easy to do, but resist cause there are still many miles before the finish line (where I'll be)!!
DISTRACTION! I find that keeping yourself as busy as possible helps. (Of course, while trying to give your legs a rest & eat healthy at the same time - it can be a challenge.)
no fear... Runner's Luck is here!! ;) You WILL get your work done and you WILL do AMAZING AT THE NYC Marathon this weekend!!! Just sayin ;)
Lots of good luck! Just relax and enjoy the experience. I stay calm by running short runs up to two days before the event.
I'm from South Africa and Afrikaans speaking. I can read and understand the Dutch comments and really enjoy doing that.
Dont worry, you re gonna do great in NY! And, all these race day yitters will just make you faster on the big day :)
P.s. have you seen Kara Gouchers blog post on the NY marathon? http://running.competitor.com/2010/11/features/karas-lessons-from-new-york_16215 some helpful tips :)
Ha! No advice but I wanted to wish you all the best for the coming weekend! I cannot wait to read you recap. Cheers!
