How did all start?

January 1st 2011, we were on our way to the temple when we started a discussion on being fit. One lead on to another and I said 'How nice it will be to run a marathon? ' One lead on to another and by 2 pm my son walks into a Nike store and got me a pair of running shoes!!!Now I am really stuck. All my life I have been telling my children about aiming high, look for the stars, setting goals which are seemingly impossible etc...
It is time, at 47 years, I have to say that I will do it
So I did - Save be GOD!!!!!
We came home, I googled - to look for an idiots guide to running marathon. Finally landed up in the California International Marathon Page (http://www.runcim.org/) Went into my calendar and marked December 4th, 2011 - for running the Sacramento Marathon.
Watched a movie and went to sleep...

9th Week... relatively uneventful

I did 2 long runs (one six and another five) but did not do enough this week. Hopefully my work will permit me to do better.
I definitely have to concentrate of nutrition and better running gear. I plan to take care of the running gear this week.

Quotes of the week:
“You cannot propel yourself forward by patting yourself on the back.”
“If you fail to prepare, prepare to fail.”
