But I forgot to charge my Garmin beforehand, so there is no link to post.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.

Back on the Road Again
The training starts again! The road to Boston 2010 starts, or restarts would be more accurate, now!
For those of you who haven't seen me recently, the original plan was to do a fall marathon to stay is shape for the 2010 Boston Marathon. I trained all spring and summer to be ready. I put myself in PT to work out the kinks. Heck, I was getting massages. I ran my fastest half marathon building up to do the full Newport Marathon. And on the appointed weekend - It Rained. Not a little. Full New England gale weather. Driving cold wind and rain weather.
So there I was in Newport to set a personal record for the Marathon and between the weather and the extra 10 pounds I was carrying in wet clothes, my pace was completely off. At the halfway point I knew I would not be setting a personal record. So I stopped.
And now I am finally over it. For on the horizon is the 2010 Boston.
