And we're off

So I officially started training for the San Antonio Rock N Roll Marathon on Sunday. Yes, I like to write out the whole marathon name. There's just something fun about S.A. finally having a big time marathon! So this was week one of my being a "pace coach" which is going to be just as challenging as I thought, but it's still fun. Plus it's added incentive to keep my pace up when I know other people are counting on me.
This was also week 2 of the work team that I'm helping coordinate/coach/mentor/etc. And oh my goodness is that a lot of work. I mean I knew it was going to be work, but I have a whole new level of appreciation for the people who do this on a regular basis. I'm trying to make myself feel better by reminding myself that I'm also working a fulltime job while doing all this marathon coaching, but still, it's hardwork regardless.

That's about it on this front. I don't have any funny stories but I have new shoes! and well every runner knows how much fun new running shoes are :)
until next week....
