Do you remember INPWT? Her twins just turned one last week, incase you were wondering. Anyways, we have been eating lunch together every day since I am getting ready to move. I guess our relationship is slowly getting back to what it was before she got pregnant. She always looks at me with a truly sad look and tells me, "I'm really going to miss you"! I'm going to miss her, too.
Well, we were talking at lunch yesterday, when she told me she wanted to do this with her. After much thought, I have decided I would really like to try to do it. After all, if she can do a triathlon with four kids and INPWT who has one year old twins and is about 75 lbs heavier than I am, surely I can get off my ass and try.
Funny thing is, NYEBoy's best friend and his girlfriend run this every year, too. We have four people at work commited to doing this. I'll round it out to five. I'll probably do my updates on training at my other blog. If you don't have the link, I'll repost it when I update it with the first post. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate running? I hate it almost as much as I hate the actualy pen to paper writing.
There's no going back now, I just commited to doing this out loud. Great, what did I just get myself into?

I also don't like running but I was able to walk the Robie Creek ("the toughest half-marathon in the Northwest" - 8 miles uphill up to ~4500 ft, then 5 miles downhill) in 2006.
So Wow! You actually signed up for the marathon (or maybe half-marathon)! Good for you! So go do your 4 month training now!
