Full or Half?
So it's been on my mind lately...what can I train for? Sure, everyone mu
st go through this torturous thought process, right? (not quite). I heard about this race in Feb. '08 here in Jax Beach - ok, hard to pass up. It literally runs in front of our condo and partly on the beach! I'm SO in. I start thinking, visualizing my best marathon time, you know, the stupid t-shirt, the fans - ha! I love the cause, so I check out the map and make my decision...I must...poor Chris :)

He says "Yeah, I already saw it on the computer screen and all I saw was 26.2, and I was like OOOOHHH NO. Not again!" My response...ok half? His response? a quick "Ok." Still not sure if he'll go through those long runs, sprint training, fall heat, hills, and that lovely bridge crossing the intercoastal with me, but knowing he's there to support my strange obsession and feeling of accomplishment through sweat, pain, and the surreal feeling of crossing the finish line - that I love. priceless.
Oh Yeah!!!!! Let the not - pregnant - almost 30 - still think I "got it" (as I snap in the air) - training begin!
