So I did it…that’s right, I actually trained for and completed the Dallas Marathon from zero to 26.2 in around three months. And I finished in about 6 hours, which is a good 30 minutes before the time limit and my projected finish.
I have seen an abundance of tweets recently along the lines of Get a Life, RT if you are over 12 and have a life, Like if you Have a Life, don’t step on my lawn and get a life! I wonder what exactly these people consider “having a life.” I’m sure you know what I’m talking about–Pokemon Go. Oddly, its people who themselves spend large expanses of time doing something they enjoy.
Training for a marathon sucks up your life. I would argue you give up your life to run–and run all the time. But yet, these runners think they have a life.
I played Pokemon while training for a marathon. I guess I really don’t have a life.
Today I am exactly seven weeks post-op. Not much has happened really since my last update. I visited Dallas, walked 3 miles, and prepared my training schedule for Dopey in January, which includes the Dallas Marathon.
Since my biggest traffic draw is not favorite restaurants, a race I ran, or even pug photos, but the posts on running with dermoid cysts, I figured a TMI update was due.
Seriously, where did 2016 go? I’m positive I did so much, but it’s all a blur of food, running, tequila Sundays, traveling, and friends.
