Running

This morning I ran 4.54 miles on the treadmill, the longest I've run in 20+ years! I'm excited about my progress....and feeling a little sore and tired right now. It's a "good" sore and tired, though. I've signed up for a 4-mile race here in Durham in February. While I'd like to sign up for more races soon, I'm a wuss when it comes to cold weather! Still, I'm interested in seeing my progress on the road, since I normally run indoors on the treadmill (when not racing).

I'm on the verge of signing up for a fall half marathon, as a big goal for 2008. It's exciting to think about, but it gives me butterflies too. Can I be ready?

regarding your question about the obx marathon, you should definitely do it. it was a great time even though i'm so out of shape i couldn't finish. btw, good luck with your training for the new year.

Congratulations!! You will conquer Bubba without a problem. A half marathon is huge, but there is great training in this area if you are serious. I know Jeff Galloway has a great program and has training books for that distance.
