I'm not putting any money on that...I already part with my $$ too easily. Blush

woo hoo! i read that date as the 10th of may (UK dating system!) and my eyes nearly popped out my head! Shocked

i was thinking that was a sudden decision that left you 11 weeks to train which didn't seem like you! Then i worked out it was October! you will be great!

You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.

I printed out the application, and stared at it for a month before filling it out and dropping it in the mail. It does change things, doesn't it? If it hasn't already, it will make you more focused and driven. Way to go Zoom, kick some marathon ass!
