Marathon Failure!

Well, I think this goal of achieving a marathon by 40 is not going to happen. I gave up! Sad!!! At mile 21 of the Breakers Marathon this weekend in Newport, RI (at 4 hours hours exactly - per my Garmin) I threw in the towel. I can't believe it! I can give you numerous excuses - but basically I just gave up - I did not have it in me! Let me just say - "you marathoners out there, wow, hats off to you!"

I really thought that I could do it, mentally. But my body just couldn't do it, though my mind gave up too. It just was not meant to be.

It's Been Too Long...

... I'm finding it hard to blog, work, keep track of my kindergartener and slow down my pre-K guy Henry... and train for my first marathon... the constant juggler... I promise to do a better job of this blogging soon... I really enjoy reading blogs out there - especially running/tri related blogs... just having a hard time keeping my own up-to-date. I'll be right on that one... after I run...
