Staten Island Baby!!!

Since my last long run went so well, I decided to do something similar this weekend. So, I am traveling to Staten Island for the final half marathon of the season for the NYRR grand prix. I'll run 9 miles before the race starts and then run the half marathon ending up at 22 miles. Seems like a good plan.

I am getting super excited for the marathon. I haven't run one since NYC in 2004. This is by far the best training I have ever done. Part of the reason for the challenge was for me to really get in great shape and I am pretty close. I've had to buy all new pants and dress shirts as I was swimming in the old sizes. Went from a 44L to a 42 L and from a 36 waist to around 34 right now. Running is definitely good for both the body and the soul.

The good news is that I am now a runner!! I'll keep this up when the marathon is over. Gotta find a way to get into Boston for 2010. Anyone want to sponsor me????

Have a great night! Tim
