Marathon training 101

It's official! I signed up for my first marathon. Savanah rock-n-roll marathon. I start training tomorrow...day 1 and I think I am crazy for thinking I can do this. Who in their right mind would train in the Florida heat and humidity during hurricane season? Me, me, me!! I am nervous, yet excited...I WANT that 26.2 sticker for my car. 16 weeks and let me tell you I will be counting down those weeks religiously. I am hoping to maintain my sanity and still be the loving mom, wife, and caregiver. And of course keeping my fingers crossed I stay far away from any type of injury.

On a lighter note. We are way into 2011 and the Barnes clan is thriving and surviving. Summer has been fun and busy. We just returned from a trip back home to San Diego. I can't get over how well the boys traveled and how much fun we had. Both boys will be in school next month which will allow me to have that much needed "me" time and make training a bit easier. We've been doing tons of stuff to the house as far as remodeling, repairing, and redecorating. I still feel like we are outgrowing the house but for now we will stay.

Many things upcoming making the year whiz by...boys starting school, marathon training, our 15 year anniversay, marathon training, a trip to Jamaica, and more training. Finally ending the year with the marathon and the beloved holidays!

Hugs and kisses to all!
