Back to marathon martin - Marathon training tips

Week 3 - Saturday - February 11, 2006

Wow. I just ran 8 miles. It was not easy....at about mile 2 my legs were already telling me to walk, thanks to the two cars that drove by, honked and waved. (Actually, the cars didn't wave...but someone in the car did). For some reason, this keeps me going. I think that I feel a sense of support. So if you drive by....please honk! Who was that anyway?

At mile 4 I did stop briefly....but that was just to pick up a dollar bill....which will be donated to the building fund! One dollar closer!!

The last mile was the toughest. My legs were yelling at me....so I had to yell back. I did make it all 8 miles. Yay!!!! and Ouch!!!!

Tomorrow is cross training day....I think I'll shovel.

Eight miles done!
