PM: Why go all the way to Louisiana to run a half marathon?
TMR: There are several factors that are appealing to this old masked runner--a flat course, mild weather, beautiful scenery, and my parents live in Baton Rouge. And, it all culminates with Cajun cuisine.
PM: Will you listen to zydeco on the run?
TMR: No.
PM: What kind of shoes will you wear?
TMR: I don't pay attention to the shoes as long as they stay tied.
PM: Tell me about your pre-race meal plans.
TMR: Baked potato the night before. The old standby: peanut butter toast and coffee for breakfast.
PM: Will that be enough?
TMR: Yes--with the reservoir I carry with me.
