T-24 and counting to Columbus Marathon. I'm doing the half marathon. Today I did it! Ran 13 miles. Had to battle head winds of over 100 MPH, 3 feet of snow, a riot in downtown Columbus, traffic where cars were going high way speeds, temperatures in the upper 90s, and swim a lake full of sharks. But I persevered! Oh and my feet hurt! Okay, I know what you're thinking, yes, my feet do hurt.

    That's awesome bat man! Really, it is. That's a long run!

    I did 9 yesterday and I feel pretty good today. My Achilles tendon is a little sore, but tomorrow is a rest day!

    Keep us posted!

    I wanted to do the Columbus half, but I didn't get in before it closed. Good luck- you've got this!

    Thanks, I think it will be great! Columbus Marathon is one of the finest Marathons in the country. 18,000 runners will be there. The after race food is great and the race is simply well organized. I've ran the marathon twice before and the half once. I'm thinking about doing Cincinnati next year.
