Hmmmm...Trishie and Mississippi, you guys have the same goals...maybe you should train together!
not to run a marathon in 2008
2007 was just such an amazing year. I started changing my life in July of 2006 and I went from an obese 275-pound woman to a runner, 115 pounds lighter. I even became a cross country coach! It would be hard to have a year with as many changes as 2007 had (in addition to weight loss, I completed a 10k, several 5ks, and a half marathon, and I hit my goal of a sub-30 5k). Here are my 2008 goals so far: *Run a marathon -- no time goal, just finish. *Run two half marathons (April 5 and August 31) -- no time goal for these yet. *Run a 10k under 1 hour. *Run a 5k under 25 minutes. *Lose approximately 15 more pounds.
Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson
At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.
