This weekend I signed up for the Cellcom Green Bay Marathon, happening on May 15. I’ve been on an official training program for two weeks now, and today I broke a new personal record for length of a run on the treadmill. (Nine miles.) I’ll be blasting through a few more of those before the weather gets nice enough to get outside, I’m guessing. (In fact, I see on the official marathon website that they canceled yesterday’s training run due to dangerous temperatures. Gee, it was only -16 here when I got up this morning…)
This will be my second marathon, so I’m looking forward to seeing what I can do this time around with the knowledge I gained in last August’s Paavo Nurmi.
