The Goal

My current goal is to make it to the Boston Marathon in 2012.  To qualify I have to run a qualifying marathon in 3:40.  My current best marathon time is 5:14 - NOT GOOD!!  So I have some serious time to shave.  Thankfully my trainer Brian has confidence that he can get me there - and is even going to run it with me as my pacer! 
Serious training for this starts on September 1st.  Leading up to the September 1st date I have been weight lifting and trying to become more aware of what I eat.  Basically that means no refined sugars - more fresh foods, and LOTS OF PROTEIN.  Now begins the 6 day count down to a new challenge. 

So this blog will follow my journey of psychotic runs, unavoidable vomit, injuries, and hilarious happenings.  This is why I run and why I love the sport!!
