This is completely crazy. Maybe someday when I have an extra $15,000 lying around, I'll sign myself up and go rub elbows with the most granola people on earth. And for the whole race I'll reflect on how feminine I actually am. I'll feel relieved that I decided to get eyelash extensions before I left. I'll reach up and, finding sparkly earrings hanging from my earlobes, I'll think that the minor irritation is totally worth it. I won't feel embarrassed that I'm wearing a pink, tulle bow around my beanie. I'll love all the things that keep me from being identified as a grossy granola... because surely traveling all the way to the south pole to run a marathon in sub-zero temperatures pushes me closer to granola than I have ever been.
