Marablog, you have probably forgotten, but here is friendly reminder that you used to, in fact, be a running blog. A poor excuse for one, but a running blog nonetheless. You will be happy to note that your name still rings true, as I will once again dedicate some of your precious space to, gasp, running!
You see, registration for the Chicago Marathon opens on Feb. 1st, and I have every intention of running. I know, I know, I’ve said this before. I’ve registered for a marathon and didn’t train right, got injured, and could only run 15 miles. Well, this time I will do it right. I will do it right in the way I did my first half marathon right. I know how to train. I know what to eat. I know what kind of mental preparation it will require. I also realize how much of a time commitment it is to train for a 26.2 jaunt along the water, and how my feet will hurt, and my thighs will scream, and how I will want to eat everything put in front of me, and how Friday nights will be a bit more limited due to Saturday long runs. I am ready.
So here we go. Updates to come.
