It is official. My number for the marathon is #23131.
I'm only 26 days away from running 26.2 miles. I can't believe it's almost here. I've been so busy with work and running that I haven't had a chance to post in awhile.
Two weeks ago I was able to run 19 miles in 3 hours. Last weekend was a low mileage long run of only 12 miles but this weekend is the big weekend...21 miles. This will be the very last long run before the marathon. After my long run on Saturday the mileage drops off dramatically for your body to be rested and ready for the marathon.
I finally got some new shoes this week so I'm hoping this helps my right foot a bit which has been acting up lately. So far so good besides some aches and pains.
In terms of fundraising I'm doing great. I'm already over my goal of $6,000 and hoping to get close to $7,000. I'm pumped up!!!
I don't have anything really witty or funny to include but all I can say is that I'm getting very excited at this point. See the below trailer of a documentary movie that I thought was great. If you don't care for the trailer then you probably won't like the movie. But if you enjoy it then it's worth watching.
It documents 5 completely different runners and their reasons for running the marathon. It gets me pumped up every time I watch it. The movie is called "The Spirit of The Marathon" which you can rent and get off of Netflix as well.
