Over all the MANY years i've been running, i've participated in so many of the organized events here in the Dallas area that i've found that i've lost the motivation to get excited about repeating any of them. My running AND my body, have suffered greatly for that.
And then, as i was picking up my race packet for yet ANOTHER Dad's Day 5K, it was like the heavens parted and shown glorious light down on a flier for the Tyler Rose Marathon/Half-Marathon/5K coming up in October. i swear, i think i heard a heavenly choir sing as i picked it up and started reading it. Oh, and get this....it was perfect timing to fit the 18-week marathon training program i've always used in training for the marathon's i've done. If that ain't divine intervention, i don't know what is! :))
Anyhoo, i've started training and am feeling that excitement and motivation i felt so many years ago when i trained for my first marathon. i LOVE this feeling!!!!
Laters!!!
