I've got a fever...
I was thinking about my plans for 2008 and I've got 5 races I want to do. A couple of 10K's in April and May. That's no big deal. Then I'll take the summer to prep for a marathon Aug. 31st. Now comes the dilemma. I promised to run the St.Jude Half Marathon on Dec.7th with an old fraternity bud. We did it last year and I ran it injured and we finished in 2:10. I know this year he wants to break the 2 hour mark and that's easily doable. The next weekend is the Dallas White Rock marathon and I told my wife we'd do that since we had a crappy first marathon experience in Chicago. Is doing a half-marathon the weekend before a marathon completely insane like I think it is?
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
