My lips are a bit chapped so when Dante and I visited the local sporting goods store we both bought some lip balm stuff. I put mine on in the store and the guys are sort of looking at me funny. I get outside, and Dante decides he's not going to put his on, "and oh, by the way, your lips are white."
Next stop, Rite-Aid for some regular Chap Stick.

Vance, you are going to be just fine. Fuel well and mentally tell yourself you aren't done until you cross the finish line. You can do this, and then kill whomever talked you into it later, but I suspect this one won't be your last.
