Week 1

I started marathon training this week. My first run on Tuesday kicked my butt, mostly because my pace was way too fast. I've since adjusted and feel a little more confident. I do need to buy new sneakers, though, since I've developed some pretty nice blisters on my feet. Tomorrow is four miles. Bring it on. (My approach right now is to taunt the miles, fight them, and defeat them. As the miles grow and the half marathon gets closer, I'm hoping the miles and I will reach an agreement and learn to enjoy each other's company.)
