Picture This

A brightly lit exhibit hall is overflowing with running fanatics and lean, muscular athletes in the best of shape.  Everyone's adrenaline is rushing, and excitement is building in anticipation of tomorrow's legendary event.  Crowds are stopping by busy booths, tables and salespeople to scope out free samples and products for purchase.  Available to them are socks, shoes, energy bars, sunglasses, pain relievers, water bottles, cereal, sports drinks, deodorant, peanut butter, ballet tutus, headbands, watches, endurance gels, apparel of all kinds, jewelry, etc.  Raffles are being drawn, photographs are being snapped and personal testimonies of triumph and hardship can be heard through the speakers.

Feeling lost in the frenzy yet?  That's a marathon expo for ya.
