In less than 48 hours I will be frolicking along the streets of San Diego, California running in the San Diego Rock n' Roll Marathon. Considering 6 months ago I weighed 30 more pounds than I do now and I could barely run 5 minutes without collapsing, I feel pretty decent about it.
I'm not exactly a Kenyan and certainly won't be breaking any records not based on futility, but I'm pretty excited about it. To some it seems ridiculous ( I was one of those people 6 months ago and still cling to that), but the idea of accomplishing it reminds me of when I used to Mountain Climb or jump out of planes, I miss that rush.
So feel free to check up on hourly splits or the final results online. I might post Monday or something once I wake up from the hangover if I can crawl over to the computer and prop myself up in a chair. Have a good weekend feeling pathetic and worthless while I do something extraordinary....and by that I mean have fun getting drunk and having a great time while I torture myself.

Congrats to you and Mel for finishing the race. I know for Mel this ain't no big thang, but, still, quite the achievement!
Thanks Dan, my last post goes over it, but it's pretty cool to have actually completed one in a reasonable time. Now to improve on it the next time.
