I signed up to run in the California International Marathon on Dec 4, 2011. I've always loved to run and have ran in many 5k races, but this will be the mother of all for me! :happy: Today I went on my 1st long run. I got 13 mile in and my normal 6 miles of weekend walking in too. I'm so EXCITED to do this!
Who else is training for a 1/2 or full marathon?
I welcome any training or eating tips and friend requests too! :flowerforyou:

    I have my first full on November 5th in Savannah, Ga. I've done several halfs but just have never been quite ready to bump it up to the full. I just finished my longest run ever about an hour ago 15 miles, WooHooo!!!! Good luck on your training!!
