Well kids, it's that time of year again. Washington DC, 26.2 miles march 16th. Her's the catch: DC IS JUST A WARM UP!!!! That's right...... Sybil luddington 50k April 20th is the goal! And that goal shall be accomplished. See the goal, be the goal, achieve the goal. This race is all but over!

We Did It!!!

Be prepared

Be prepared...isn't that the boy scout's motto or something?

First off, I will say that my absolutely absence from this blog has been due to the fact that I have been seriously slacking on my running this past month. Spring break I went to Virginia, and DC, and then Vegas a week later...naturally, not much running took place during those weeks. Once I came home and got back into it, I did a 17-miler one weekend, and a 21-miler the next. I wish I could say they were easy, but they weren't. After I was done with the 21 miles I laid on my living room floor and cried. (I'm a girl - we are emotional!)

So basically...I should have listened to those boy scouts, or runners world, or any other professional who makes a training plan and suggests you stick with it for optimal results. I am planning on doing 26.2, but I am not expecting it to be easy. Or fun. Or painless. Or completed in less than 4.5 hours. If I was more prepared...perhaps. But I do think I will be able to do it.

I guess we'll see.

Todays Run: 4.0 miles, 36 mins
