If you want to make thirty gray hair-inducing decisions all within about five minutes of time, then you should buy plane tickets to San Francisco for your third marathon.

Trip insurance.  Do you get it?  Does it make your stomach rise up into your throat each time you click the button that says “No, I’m not interested”?
