Cousin Deann has been running marathons forever. I have been off and on (mostly off) running for a long time. Always not quite catching up to that ellusive goal, the Marathon, 26.2 miles. For a few years I ran "Bloomsday" the 12k race in Spokane (7.2 miles) with moderate success. My last one of those was 6 years ago.
So Deann and her husband Pat, who recently finished a triathalon this past summer, have challenged me to finally run that Marathon.
The Portland Marathon is on 10-10-10. How cool is that?
So I am about a month in of running 3-4 days a week. Primarily measuring my runs with a pedometer. Not really worried about milage or time yet just getting in some steps. So Today's run was 12,000 steps around Michigan Hill. A 7.5 mile loop that when I was a teenager I could run in 49 minutes. It took longer today.
