Marathon training update

In precisely 80 days, 19 hours, 56 minutes and 21 seconds I will be running the Richmond marathon with Andrea! It's hard to imagine being excited about running 26.2 miles, but there is an inexplicable energy that comes with long distance running.  I ran the Richmond marathon in 2003 and was excited when Andrea asked me to run with her this year. 

Training has been tough.  In fact, even as I blog, I am icing my hamstring after this morning's 13.1 mile run.  I  look forward to transitioning to autumn weather, and will appreciate the crisp cool air and the sound of leaves crunching under my Mizunos. Gotta run ;)
