A New Adventure

With the support of two of my greatest friends, I am embarking on a new adventure: completing my first marathon! This is going to be a BIG challenge as I loathe running...hmmm, I guess I need to work on that...

My ultimate marathon goal is to complete the "Flying Pig Marathon" in Cincinnati, OH in 2011. I found it while searching for a triathlon on the internet and fell in love with the idea of a marathon based on the premise of "when pigs fly." How perfect is that?!? I was hoping to enter in May of 2010; however, hubby said that I had to COMPLETE an ALASKA marathon first before he would let me go tromping all over the US. Oh no, not two marathons, but I think that it will be worth it.

So I have decided on the Mayor's Marathon in Anchorage, AK 2010 to be my first marathon. In order to see if this is even a remote possibility, I have decided to the enter the Kenai River Half Marathon in September of this year. It was the closest I could get to the halfway mark for next year's marathon. If I can survive a half marathon, then a full marathon may be within my reach! That's my theory anyway...

Eran, this blog is for you girl!
