The first practice is May 17, 2008. They’ll time us on 3 miles. I began walk/runs last year and completed two half marathons. However, I am very slow at an 18 minute mile.

Between now and May 17, I am dieting and working a lot of cardio. My hope is that the test will have me at a 16 minute mile.

The first annual Rock N Roll Marathon is November 16, 2008. I plan on registering soon to cement this goal.
