My 1st Marathon
I just registered for my first Marathon! I never thought that I would be up for this but I've decided that if Matt loves something I should try my best to love it too. So... Matt is planning on running the San Francisco Marathon in July while we are out there on vacation and now I am too! Okay, you can pick your jaw up off the floor while I explain. I am running a Progressive Marathon. I need to run 23.1 miles prior to the race weekend and keep track of it on a special form. Then on race day I finish my 26.2 miles by running a 5K. Okay, yes... I know it's a lame excuse for a marathon but I didn't give it that name - they did! BUT... Matt said that when I finish he will say "Way to go on your MARATHON!" That's all the motivation I need... plus, I get a medal. I'm just hoping that Matt let's me hang it by all of his. Now to start training!

There's nothing like being able to say that you're a marathoner...whether it's walking or running progressively...it still counts! And the medal is really a nice touch too...
:)
Good luck!
I'm laughing so hard! I was alittle shocked when I first started reading your post, but it all made sense... Enjoy the Marathon training/running!
Crazy, Gretch! Good luck :)
