Lisa: Save the date
I am going to run the Salt Lake City marathon on June 3rd, 2006. This book, which I found through Pamie and Laura, says one of the first steps is to tell people I'm planning to do it. I guess it's an accountability thing. ANYWAY, I am going to RUN a MARATHON. I know, it's blowing my mind too. Training starts December 6!
Posted by lisa at November 19, 2005 02:34 PMSo...my mom used to run marathons and I have often wondered if it was something I would like to do. Remind me the amount of miles?? also what will your training include? Would you like a friend to train with you? DO you already have a friend to train with? I can be your friend...
Posted by: Jessie on November 20, 2005 07:49 PMHey! Would you be interested? You should TOTALLY join us! Mallory is going to do it too, and Sarah says she is going to train with us but is not convinced about the marathon. The more the merrier! Anyway, it's 26.2 miles, and the training is four runs per week, gradually working up. We are following the plan in the book.

Posted by: Sarah on November 21, 2005 11:27 AMSARAH! YOU CAN DO IT! YOU WANT TO DO IT! And I will be excited to see you there, Marci!
Posted by: lisa on November 21, 2005 03:31 PMOk so Lisa you have to keep me posted on when you are starting your training because I seriously want to join you. Im not joking, it would be a good goal for me health wise. I have been feeling a little down about my inadequate working out and think that having something that I am working towards would give me a reason to do it. When are you starting?
