Just Do It Tracie~~~ 26.2 Miles isn't THAT long~~~

I figure the best way for me to actually do a marathon is to tell as many people as possible and to write it down so I see it every day and therefore can't shy away from it.

Goal: Run the L.A. Marathon on March 1, 2009.

I've already looked up a training program thanks to the Runners World website. (Program designed for runners who have never ran over 6 miles... that's me~~) I would have to start 16 weeks before the race, so I would start training the first week of November.

I figure training in Utah in cold weather will be good for my lungs and endurance and will make race day somewhat easier. If there is such a way to make running 26.2 MILES any easier.

It's a daunting task, but I will do it.

I really DON'T want to run it by myself. I'm trying to enlist Tawnie Dee McCaa to run with me, but so far, no good. Any takers? Jill? Brittany? (HA JOKE Britt) Kellie my sister? Bradley my brother? Anyone? Anyone? (Adrienne, I don't even know if you like to run, but you are exempt from my marathon draft... if it comes to that...)
