Well, the other day my friend threw out the idea of running a marathon. Immediately, I thought NO WAY! I cannot, will not, want not to run 26 miles. I make fun of those people. Those people are crazy. Yet...
I think I might. The more I thought of the crazy ridiculous notion to run that much, the more the bud of desire began to bloom. I am 23. I have no kids. I am healthy. WHY NOT? Then, my friend and I started actually looking up marathons. There is one in San Antonio, a place Chad and I have never been, that is in November. It's the Rock 'N Roll Marathon. My friend and I started getting excited...as girls do when a plan starts coming together. We could have a couples weekend. We could treat ourselves to a hotel. (We better start a Dave Ramsey envelope now!!!) We could accomplish an amazing feat and our hubbies could enjoy music and relaxation. Let's do it!
Now, will this really happen...I don't know. We have not started training. We have never ran this much before. We have not changed our diets and I love being lazy. But I hope it does happen. I hope we do this amazing thing, this mental and physical challenge that pushes us to the limit, and I hope we do it together. I hope I accomplish this thing I never I thought I would do. I hope we run a marathon. So in high hopes, I write this blog to help motivate me to run a marathon.
What I hope I will look like...
What I think I will look like...
We are so going to do this.
