Make the Decision 26.2 miles, no retreat, no surrender

This is my first Blog entry.  I have decided to discuss the Marathon for the initial entry.  I have talked about running one.  I have run Half Marathons.  I have run 18 miles on my own.  The finish line to 26.2 miles has evaded me for too long!

As of today, I am 192 lbs, my long run is up to 9 miles and I am in decent shape.  It is time too make "the decision".  You know, the AINT NO STOPPING US commitment that drives the ordinary to accomplish the extraordinary.  I am ready to do this.  I commit to running 12 miles this weekend.  The Miami Marathon is January 29th.  It will be a tight schedule, but I can get 1 or 2 20mile runs under my belt before then and taper for 2 weeks or so. 

Come with me on my journey to 26.2  This is one of my Vision Quests that I must realize.
