run a marathon (read all 3 entries…)
I was supposed to run the Los Angeles Marathon March 4, 2007 :-(

I usually don’t give up but this is an exception being that the Marathon has past and I wasn’t there.

A knee injury forced me to stop running and I used this as an excuse to stop training altogether, but the reality is that my training never did take off as it needed to.

My aproach was flawd from the start, I didn’t stick to my running schedule and I NEVER quite ate right.

Now I’ve set a less ambitious goal (Shouldn’t we adjust when we miss our target?) and have plans to run the Bogota Half Marathon on Colomiba this July 29, 2007.

I am adhering and keeping close track of my running and have already started to make improvements on my diet.

:-D

good idea

and you can make it. i have now run two marathons. the first one i tried to train for was the walt disney world marathon in january of 2006.

i never made it. a knee and hip injury forced me to stop running 6 weeks before the race. i tried training to hard and paid for it.

later that year, i regrouped, started training again and ran the vegas marathon in december.

good luck :-)
