Even though I only ran (OK, ran/walked) a mile yesterday, I'm feeling it. I'm actually feeling it a lot in my abs, which I was not expecting. This is good because I will generally not do sit-ups or crunches of my own volition, so score.
I didn't do any running today. Last night I went out with Tracy and her husband Dan to Bethesda and ended up kind of hungover this morning after a whopping total of 3 beers. Yeah, I really know how to live it up. What makes me feel even older is that they picked me up after 10:30 and I kept thinking, "This is so far past my bedtime." I swear I'm really only 27.
Mom said she thinks I can do the full marathon in January and she'll hold me accountable to it. There's a half marathon in Chestertown, MD on September 22 that's completely flat and that may be a good goal to work towards. I should probably be able to run 13.1 by then if I want to make the 26.2 a few months later, so I'll shoot for that. Disney also does a Wine & Dine half marathon my birthday weekend in November, and I briefly thought about doing that instead of the full January one, but it's sold out so it's a moot point. Still though, it's at night and you run through Epcot and they've got food there from all these countries. Sounds good to me. 2013? Or 2014, for my 30th? Damn, I'm getting old enough to start planning my 30th birthday.
