[quote=Anonymous]I know the race is still several months away but I've got some questions on my mind as I'm training. 1) the web site says headphones are discouraged. Do I need to wean myself off them now or will it be ok to run with them? To give context, I started running as part of a combination of therapies to combat severe PPD. I have no delusions of grandeur and anticipate averaging 12-13 min/mile, putting me near the very end. I'm thinking the crowds of spectators will start to thin out and I'll really want the music for the second half of the race. I know headphones are frowned upon by many but not sure it'll really matter if I'm that far back. 2) will the finish area have cleared out somewhat by the time I finish or will it still be a madhouse? DH is totally unfamiliar with Arlington and not thrilled about meeting me at the finish. Is there a better nearby place to meet up? Any other words of advice also much appreciated. Thanks so much![/quote]
