No worries! You're putting in the time and miles, so it shouldn't be a problem (said from the man who hasn't run a marathon yet...) Just keep building the miles and putting in the time...

I've pretty much been cut off since the second kid arrived...

Just because running is simple does not mean it is easy.

Is it sad or just good planning that I always check cutoff times before my races?

Im registered for that one too! I ran my first marathon at the derby festival last year, and felt the same way after I registered. Just put in the miles and you'll be fine.
