what i've learned so far

i am finishing up my fourth week of training through Team in Training. a few things i have learned so far:
1. do not run more than what is scheduled...you'll pay for it
2. invest in an accurate pedometer (otherwise...when you think you're running six miles...you're actually running ten)
3. hills suck (but I'm not complaining)

This coming weekend we have a 4-miler out at weller park. at least the weather is mild! looking forward to gettin' out there...

what's this for?

i've started up this blog to keep you all informed with my marathon status...both in training and donations. i think blogging can get out of hand (call me a hypocrite) so my posts will be simple and painless. no scrolling through paragraph after paragraph...my posts will only include miles run that week, donation status, and a quick note or two.
i might eventually put up a photo or two...but i feel awkward having brooke take pictures of me running. but what other kind of pictures can i put on a running log blog? we'll have to see...
