Long Runs Down

I did my last long run before the marathon yesterday. I'm nervous though, that it wasn't all running. I did half of it on the eliptical machines at the gym, and half on the treadmill. I really like the elipticals. And, it gives my arms more of a work out then the running. But, I think it may not be as difficult as the running. We'll see. The next three weeks will be short distances - 6 miles is short. I will be running all those and trying to build up speed.

It took 5 hours, and I spent the five hours thinking of what to put in the blog. Then, I had no energy and drive after the run, so it's the next day and I can't remember what I wanted to put in here.

It will come to me. Mostly, I realized that it has been a month since I last typed. I am living, breathing marathon, so there is no time to type about it.

That's awesome - you made a goal, you committed to that goal and you are striving to meet that goal. Can't wait to see how you do in January.
