I just wanna make sure that you're it sounds like you're set. It sounds like you're confident, and it sounds like you're set, which is great. Yeah. And when you when you arrive there, you know, everything changes. You no? Now I'm tier, and there's signage, and there's welcomes and there's people that are asking you what's going on and everyone's gonna tell you they're sick. And then, you know, the training didn't go so well for me, and I don't know what I'm gonna do. That's a bunch of bullshit. And we're just hours away from the Chicago Marathon from stepping off right here at Grand Park and with so much excitement already building. The way I'll judge success or failure at this race is if you walk away and say, that was easy. Go far and carry. No best after 7AM, we're runners. We're making 26.2 mile trek across the city. I don't want I want I don't want any expectations. No watches. No pace. No nothing. Just no out and run.
