35 Days!

Remember when I signed up to run another marathon, despite the fact that I didn't have the time to train for one?

Well, that time was last fall. Going into it, I thought, No worries. I totally have time to train for a marathon. And then I got further into the semester... and WAM! Before I knew it, I'd missed nine out of the last ten Saturday morning training runs with the marathon team. The best (or worst, depending on how you look at it) part is... I've already paid a pretty considerable amount of money to run the marathon, and there's no way I'm getting my money back at this point.

Long story short, I've been training for this marathon. It's called the Surf City Marathon in Huntington Beach, California. 5:30 a.m. Super Bowl Sunday. Heck yes.

Unfortunately, I got sick for about five weeks throughout November and part of December, so my training took a big hit from that one. Then there were some injuries, and other miscellaneous stuff that tried getting in my way. However, I'm still excited to run this marathon, and I've been running pretty solidly for the last few weeks.

With 35 days left... we'll see how it goes!
