What's Next?

Tuesday Night
Me: I just went running
AD: I feel like running a half marathon
Me: There is Vancouver in May. JD said I should run it
AD: My knees are shot and I need to train but if you run it, I’ll tag along
Me: More like you zipping ahead
AD: No I’m serious
Me: How about I tell you this weekend after I complete a week of running?
AD: Offer stands for the next 45 minutes
Me: Oh alright
(walks to computer and checks the date for the vancouver half marathon)

I’ve registered for the event. 85 days til Race day. The website has a nice countdown clock: http://www.bmovanmarathon.ca/hm/index.php (I'm also procrastinating from doing my performance review. They're due later today)

It’s a good motivator for me to start working myself back into shape. Hopefully it won’t take me too long to get into shape (due to the leftover fitness levels from December) I’ve also heard nice things about the course so I’m semi-excited. No particular time goal. It would be nice to just finish. I would not be too upset if I did better than 2:20 (my only half marathon time) though.

I won't register for the SF Marathon until after the Vancouver half marathon. I'll use Vancouver to decide if I want to run any marathons (or which) this year.

Good luck to you. I'm running the full in Vancouver, which is the first marathon I will have done.

So how did this turn out? Are you training for it? Best of luck if you are!
