Training officially started today. I was up at 5:00 & ready to go. The pouring rain told me to head back to bed though. An auspicious start to my training to say the least.
Luckily, the rain lifted by mid-morning & I was able to get in my three miles at lunch. I’m sure the running will become tedious over the next 18 weeks, but right now I’m fired up to be starting.
I’m looking forward to hitting the road tomorrow morning. Will I be able to complete the training over the next 123 days & finish the Philadelphia Marathon? I’m not sure, but I’ll give it my all, plus:
I have confidence in sunshine
I have confidence in rain
I have confidence that spring will come again
Besides which you see I have confidence in me!
You da man Pat Curley. We will cross the line together in November... no doubt in my mind. Run long!
