The First Run

My legs are shaky and tired after the 2 miles I ran today. It was my first run in over two months so it was hard but it felt great. I cannot wait until a get back into shape! Thanks for training for the marathon with me Jesse!

First Day

I'll confess it has been a long time since I have last ran a distance of more than a few hundred yards. But I ran 2 miles with Emily this morning (after carrying a large oak armoire with my dad and Ben). It was not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. It actually felt rather nice, except that my mouth always feels funny when gulping down cold air. After stretching my leg muscles feel a bit tingly, so I'll bet that I am going to feel this tomorrow.

Onward and upward!

A Big Audatious Goal

Emily sent me a text and asked: "Do you want to start training now for a full Marathon in 2008?"

How could I resist such an offer of comradere during a potentially gruelling journey to the finish line of a full Marathon? We have run together in a measly 13.1 Mile half marathon, so we have some history of pounding the pavement. Now this is a whole new challenge. We have not yet picked the race that we will choose, but we will keep the blog updated as we progress in our training.
