So this is it!
I’ve made the move. After a few false starts, rain, hurricane winds, and over eating, I’ve kept on schedule for 2 weeks of pre-training. I’ve made the commitment and signed up for the Portland Marathon. It’s a long way off and I know I should be done with my training weeks before the deadline – after all, it’s almost 8 months away. And I’ve heard that this is one of the best marathons for beginners.
Besides, I like Portland and hope to take a few days to fly up and enjoy it before the big race. What a better way to set a goal to something than by adding it to a vacation plan. Yeah!
