New Year, New Goals...How about a Marathon?
I've been contemplating trying to run a marathon for sometime, and now seems more like the right time than ever...oddly as a former epileptic I was discouraged from running more than a half marathon, but as a new diabetic strenuous exercise seems to be more encouraged. For the last 30 minutes I've been staring at the "register here screen." I just started running again a couple of weeks ago, and I am almost exactly 6-months away from June 1st, the date of the Rock N' Roll Marathon--a reasonable training time. I've looked at "How to train guides" online and am even thinking of placing a subscription for Runner's Magazine. Already, I feel stronger, healthier, and more self-confident as my heart pounds and sweat trickles down the sides of my face.
Maybe tomorrow I will have the courage to finally register...
P.S. I also have my eye on the San Diego International Triathlon as well, which is 4-weeks after the marathon...am I crazy?
