30th Training Run

Can you believe that you are about to run your 30th training run? In February many of you struggled with that 1 mile on the Belhaven hills. Now you will go 20!!!! TWENTY!!!!

You have come so far and done so well and you are prepared for this! This is the time to reflect back over your journey and realize that you have succeeded so many times. Many, many days you succeeded at getting up and running/walking/wogging. Many, many Saturdays you got up and made the distance to the start and made the distance to the finish AND showed up for another Saturday to do it again.

This is 4th year of doing this and believe me, you are prepared for this! Our program works and it has gotten you to 18 miles, it will get you to 20 miles, then 22 and then 26.2! Practice your positive talk. Prepare to struggle - that's part of it - and be in the moment. This is living LARGE and you don't want to wish it away.

You're doing it! You are Marathoners!

When I finish the 20 miles or 5 hours in the Mississippi heat, I will look forward to doing the "cool" 26.2 miles!!

I can't get to the members only section of the MM web site. I type in the pwd I've been using and it seems to have changed. I don't have access to my email up here in CO so missed it if you sent out a notice of the pwd change. Would you send an email to my husband's account -- he's set up for email here, which for some reason I can't accomplish :(

His email is cellsae@bellsouth.net

Don't worry about all emails, just let me know the pwd for the web site.

Thanks!
