Marathon to 30!
Greetings,
So, here it is: As July 15th (my twenty-eighth birthday) quickly approaches, I am seriously considering to begin training for a Marathon. Yes, you read correctly! A marathon! 26.22 miles! 42.195 kilometers! 138,441.6 feet!
Training, which will begin the week of my birthday, will be a marathon in itself: 104 weeks of preparation. It's not a sprint, because I'm in no hurry; and it's not a competitive race, because this is a personal journey; and my goal isn't the finish line, because completing a marathon AND turning 30 will be a new beginning for me.
My plans are still under construction, as I will be researching running literature (for beginners), marathons, training schedules, and etc. over the next few days. In the meantime, I guess I should fill you in on things like how and why I decided to run a marathon, who or what is my inspiration, what are my goals, and why blog about it. Stay tuned for the answers to all of these inquiries and more.
Getting ready to hit the hay,
Almost Thirty
