Marathon Training - Update

Sunday, May 24, 2009

So, two weeks into the running and I'm pretty much on track. One more week and the 18 week Hal Higdon Marathon Training Program begins in earnest.

I thought to sign-up too late and the official marathon capacity of 45,000 participants had already been reached (at least as far as sign-ups go), so I scoured the charitable organizations to find one that I could morally and intellectually get behind. I'm pleased to say that I will be running for Rock for Reading.

In addition to the miles and miles I'll be running to get ready for this event, I now need to find $750 in donations (whether or not I run). If you count the $10 I donated myself to "prime the pump", I've managed $60 already!

Aren't you just a sweetheart!

I have been a bad husband. Mostly because I haven't had rehearsals to go to, to be driving back from.

Well, congratulations--it's more than what you started with!

AND you're following through.

I'm getting ready for the Relay for Life.
I don't think I've worn sneakers since last year's event.

UHoh.....
