I want to run a marathon
#iwant1I started July 1 in horrible shape. I want to run a marathon on March 1, 2009 and am working on building a base before I get into the real training. Real training begins on or around October 1, 2007 and this is the progress so far.
Update - I am doing an 18 week training program that starts this Monday, October 13th.

Wanted to go 3.5 but so much pain I had to walk after only going 2.75. Need to take a day off to let the legs recover
