I Honestly Don’t Know…

Pgh Marathon… what has gotten into me, but this running bug hit and it hit hard.

Yes, I ran the PGH MARATHON 5k back in May, 2011.  I was excited and stressed because I had so many doubts as to whether I could actually do it.  Complete the 3.1 miles required to cross the Finish Line.

I did.

At breakfast that morning, my young cousin challenged me to do the GREAT RACE 10k in September, 2011.  Again with the doubts and the stress.

But sometimes, you just know you’re doing the right thing even though you don’t know exactly WHY you’re doing it.

When my cousin caught up to me and ran with me part of the 10k course, it was a special moment.  So many people and yet – she found me.  That’s what I meant when I said that it was a special gift.

I think you see where I’m going with this:  5k, 10k, Half [13.1 miles].

So it shouldn’t come as any surprise that on Monday, October 10th, 2011 – I registered to run the PGH MARATHON on May 6, 2012.

My goal is to finish the HALF [13.1 miles].

206 days to train…
