Marathon
Oi. What have I gotten myself into? Yesterday, I signed up to run a marathon in January. I've never run more than about three or four miles at once.
Daunting though it may be, I'm doing it through Train to End Stroke, a marathon training team that raises funds for stroke research and education. Two years ago, my father survived a massive cerebellar stroke. That event changed my family life forever.
I'm setting up a Marathon category here and may set up a separate marathon blog. Stay tuned for an ongoing annal of pain and suffering while I teach this aging body to move. ;-)
