1000 Miles


Today I surpassed 1000 miles on my Nike+iPod kit. I'm pretty proud of that. Sure it took me about 2 years to do it but that's most than most people. 

Marathon Training Update:
The Baltimore Marathon is just a short two weeks away and training has been great. I went up to the NCR trail this morning and ran 20 miles, the longest I'll run before race day. I was supposed to do this distance last week but I didn't really prepare myself for it. I complained about it all week and stayed out way too late the night before. No wonder I only went 8 miles and called it quits. I changed my attitude this week and borrowed Jared's Camelbak to get more water than my Fuel Belt can hold. Needless to say, the run was a success and I'm on good pace to meet my goal of 3:40. 
We signed Jeff up for the Kids Fun Run on the day of the Marathon. Some other friends were doing it and we thought that was a great idea. There are still openings if you want to do the same. $10 per kid. The 5k is still open as well. Go sign up! It's only 3.1 miles. Go to www.thebaltimoremarathon.com to register.

Congrats AJ. That's an amazing acomplishment. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of running, I am very impressed.
