Marathon...here I come! wakepner: I have begun a new journey and am so excited about it. I am training to run in the San Diego Rock n Roll Marathon on June 6th.
I am running with Team In Training (www.teamintraining.org), which benefits The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. It is such an amazing organization and I am honored to raise money and run with this team.
I ran my first 3 miles of training on Saturday - 38 minutes. WAHOO!!! ;D It made me feel amazing...I can only imagine how the rest of the training and the big day will make me feel.
This is a defining moment in my life...

Re:Marathon...here I come! JDorn: Congratulations, running has been one of my most effective outlets for stress since my wife and I started splitting up. I ran a few 10k's (6.2 miles) last year and was so proud of myself for doing something i never thought I could.
Though a marathon, yikes, thats gonna be a killer :)
Good Luck, and just keep running, it gets easier every day.

Re:Marathon...here I come! whythisnow: I have a few friends in Team for Training.
I am really busy right now but I want to join up. I was in incredible shape in College and I want to get back into it.
I have been working out for a few years but really need to make the commitment. I want to do a Triathlon in 2005. I suck at swimming but could easily do the bike and running.
Keep us posted on your work-outs. Good Luck fundraising !!! You should post your link here.
Re:Marathon...here I come! browngreen: How's the marathon going?
Old post-- don't know if you're ever still around... but I want to train and do a marathon as well.
We have one here called The BRidger Ridge Run. It's up the bridger mountain range and along the ridge and down the other side. Single track most the way and great views on each side.
I can't tell you how I LONG to do that run. And be in shape to actually DO it!
My H did it without training and had an asthma attack.
The next year he trained for it and was in the top 50 finishers.
I would be psyched just to finish..!
You go!
