Marathon Update

So tonight I was getting a little bored so I decided to update everyone on how the marathon training is coming thus far. First I would just like to acknowledge how COOL it is that I can even have a marathon update because that means that I am actually sticking to my goal! wahoo! Ok moving on, so this past saturday McKay and I ran 13 miles. That means we are half way done with the training, and the whole time I was running those 13 miles I just kept thinking, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS ONLY HALF OF IT! HOW WILL I RUN 13 MORE! But when there is a will there HAS to be a way! right? Overall the training is going really well, I am starting to get up earlier and earlier in the morning to run because it is just so dang hot around 8 am.
I also just purchased my new shoes that should hopefully carry me through the actual blessed event so YAY to not having to buy $100 shoes anytime soon! Oh and thanks to McKay for supporting me through my past couple long Saturday runs... I haven't quite figured out WHY you keep coming with me, and I am amazed that you can just go out and run that far without training for weeks, but thank you it has made the runs so much more enjoyable. (Now I just have to see if I can talk him into running the actual marathon with me) hehe Well that is all for tonight, hope everyone is having a good night!
