"Easy" 7 @ 6am. I really didn't want to get up and go. Sometimes I wonder why I'm doing this. Why am I training for another marathon? Am I crazy for trying to run two in one year? I think I am. But I'm still gonna do it. I'm glad I got up and went this morning. Beautiful sunrise and clipped thumbnail shaped moon. I didn't even check the temp (thank goodness I dressed warm) but it was COLD!

BK Power Yoga 1- 52 minutes

you are not crazy to run two marathons in one year, just awesome.

but i will say this: marathoners ARE crazy. no getting around that. it's a good crazy though.

i agree that it was WAY COLD this morning, and i also agree that the moon was lovely.

keep it up with your training -- you're doing great!

It was cold this morning! It was cold at 9:00 am when I went! I thought about you, wondered if you had gone earlier.

You are crazy. But you are more tough than crazy so Enjoy it! You will be so happy when you look back on it all.

Whenever you're doubting the reason behind training/running, just consider the alternative.

A few things that keep me going...

my family loves to watch Biggest Loser. I sometimes watch "Heavy" on A&E. HOLY COW! and...not in the same category but just watched this on the news today.

And your encouragement of course! Thank you all!!!

Cool article. Good perspective. We are so lucky to be able to run and feel healthy. JD, that would be a good magnet or sign on the door or something. I like that.

yeah that was me considering the alternative or what could be...cause ya never know what life will bring. good quote. How are you feeling JD?
