i can't even stand it, i got in to the new york city marathon. my tenth marathon will be the NEW YORK CITY marathon! just writing about it gives me chills.
november 2, 2008. 135 days and counting. geez, i've got a lot of work to do.
jona's volunteered to be my personal trainer. he's ready to get my butt in shape to make this a marathon of a lifetime. PRs? who knows. mental toughness? you bet. it's my greatest challenge. convincing my brain that my body can do it. ugh. my crazy brain.
but anyways, there you go ... new york!
That's so exciting! Congrats! I think you should call this "Widdy runs the city", like how Diddy did it. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Enjoy it. That's an incredible race, I'll bet.

ReplyDeletei've decided on the steamtown marathon, in Scranton, PA on october 12. it's supposed to be a really great marathon, so while it's no NYC, i think it will be a good time!
