So, they say after running a marathon you should take some time off from running - maybe 2, 3 weeks. I took more like 2, 3 months. But that's all behind me now:
Today, November 1, 2007, registration begins for the 2008 Vermont City Marathon. I signed up for the race, and the training class, Marathon 201.
Already I feel queasy.
Last spring my chip time was 5:33:41. The ultimate goal for this race is to chop off an hour and finish at 4:30:00. I've already been warned this may not be realistic. But I must have wasted 15 minutes in line for the bathroom last year, so that's a 1/4 of way. Add to that better discipline, more hills, speed workouts -- it's possible. Maybe 4:45:00 wouldn't be too bad.
