Marathon Motivation

About 8 minutes after finishing the half marathon back in May a friend suggested going for a full and I immediately said "YES!"  I don't know why I can't drop this dream or bucket list item.  Its so much time and so demanding on your body.  I just have so much respect for anyone that can complete a marathon.  I mean "WOW!" running 26.2 miles, holy cow!  Rock star!

I want it and I'm going for it.  I said this would be the year for the full marathon and so all I can do is try.  I have started the 22 week training plan AGAIN.  I started it back in December aiming for a May marathon but my IT band was acting up and I needed to take a couple weeks off and a couple more going easy.  Now, my sights are set on the Philadelphia Marathon November 18th.  I just completed week 2 of training and I'm feeling good.
