Marathon



(Me and my running buddy at the '09 Marathon starting line the day before)
Registration for the St George Marathon is happening now!! The cap has been raised to 7400 - odds look good on getting in. Registration closes May 1st, midnight.


I wasn't going to sign up, then I was, then I wasn't, now I AM going to make another attempt at marathon victory this year (pending doctor's approval at my appointment)


If you have never spectated (sp?) a marathon, you are missing out on an incredible experience. It is truly amazing.

I will run a marathon before I die!

I have never ran a marathon before. I clocked myself running a half marathon. I know that I have time to train for a marathon (St. George) but afraid that I might not be able to finish. I guess it does not hurt to try. I do not think I could finish it in a short amount of time. I run a half in about the same time that others can finish a full. It took me 152 (2 hours 32 mintues) minutes to run a half. Things that make you go hum! Whats a girl to do?

Heather and Angie - you can do ANYTHING you put your mind to! I am living proof - I have run 4 1/2s (all quite slowly, I might add). I think the most important thing about a marathon (for me) is being able to say I finished. That will be good enough for today.
