WHY BLOG ABOUT IT? PART 2

Greetings,


As I was saying, writing this blog has been a struggle for me. So, the following is an attempt to define the boundaries of of this blog.


This blog IS intended to:
  • be a journal of my adventures in training for a marathon.

  • be informational, to keep you posted on my progress and/or struggles.

  • be kept short, written and published within 30 minutes per blog.

  • consist of 1-2 blogs per week once training starts (these first 2 weeks of entries are a bit excessive, I just wanted to blog my total creative process leading up to training).

  • be a forum for your comments, questions, support, suggestions, etc., as it relates to my training. Haters welcome too.

This blog IS NOT intended to:

  • be the focus of my journey. As a matter of fact, it's not even secondary to the task at hand.

  • be a literary masterpiece, so expect some grammatical errors, colloquialisms, and run-on sentences.
  • be a blow-by-blow of every detail of my current endeavour.
  • be an open forum for you, or me, to vent or ramble about topics unrelated the purpose of this blog (just scroll up if you've forgotten).

This is my ninth entry so far and it is getting easier for me to adhere to these guidelines with each blog. But I feel like I still have so much to cover before my training starts. So, look forward to a few more during the rest of the week covering my goals more specifically, some reservations I have about training, and a brief overview of my long-term training schedule.

Headed to bed a bit early tonight,

Almost Thirty
