Marathon Essentials

2 months ago I had this brilliant idea, I would sign up for a marathon to force me to run and get in shape!!!
fast forward to today, it is silly to think that you can go from no-running to a marathon in 2 months. while I covered all 26.2 miles, I have taken residence in the "Pain-cave" for at least the next few days

so there you go, you need running shoes, an entry number and plenty of Iboprofen to complete a marathon. (a little training might help)

my highlight of the day was crossing the finish line with my 2 oldest kids pulling me and urging me to run faster!
