ADRENALINE! HEART! DESIRE! (& a lil b.o.)

It’s been 8 days since I learned of my brother’s feat of finishing a 75 mile bicycle charity event.

That got my brain again thinking about trying to run a marathon.  I feel fat and sluggish.  I just saw a bunch of recent pictures of me on FB and surprise - surprise!!!  I look quite fat.
I could not be underperforming more at work or in my business so I feel like I need to do something extraordinary.
Realistically in the shape I’m in I figure I would need about 28 weeks to train, but OH NO!  THAT’S WAY TOO LONG!!!
I found a marathon in Dallas on December 4, 2011.  That gives me about 14 weeks to build up my stamina from about 4 miles to let’s say 16 miles.  I’m hoping adrenaline, heart and desire will push me the other 10+ miles.
Well I guess I’m off to a pretty good start.  I just did 2.5 miles on my lunch break even though I’m super tired and I forgot to bring an extra shirt to run in.  That’s right I’m wearing the shirt I ran in under my uniform – I’m sooooo nasty!
