Wow, has some time passed or what!!

I had it had been so long since I had posted anything on here. Life has been a bit crazy since I got home from Chicago. I really had no desire to think of anything that had to do with running. I was so upset I didn't get to finish Chicago that it hurt too much to think about it. Well, I went out to the MS Blues Marathon Saturday to cheer for the runners. I know how that made me feel in Chicago! Well, it put the fire back in me to finish a marathon. I had actually gotten to the point where I didn't care one way or the other if I did it or not. I actually think I am to the point of caring now. I mean, it was my goal for 2007. How could I let my life go on and not actually complete it. I would be cheating myself. The way I see it, I had a goal of doing a Century ride in 2006, but I fell off my bike and wasn't able to complete it. I didn't let that stop me. I just had to to April of 2007 to complete it. AND I did!! So, the same may be true about a marathon. Sometimes it takes two chances to get things done. Looks like that is the case for the two biggest athletic things I have ever set out to accomplish.
My friend Jenny Woodruff has trained with Team in Training, and her brother is a coach. So, I believe I am going to train with TNT for the June 1 Rock-N-Roll Marathon in San Diego, CA. I am pretty excited! There is an information meeting at Fleet Feet coming up soon. :o)
