Marathon

I signed up for a marathon last week. It's going to happen in Seoul on the 20th of March, which gives me 20 days from today to prepare.

So far, I have never run more than 15 miles. I was going to run 17 miles yesterday, but it was rainy. I still went running anyway, and I had mixed feelings about it. It was nice that no one else was outside, but that was for a good reason - it was really cold, wet, and muddy.

In the end, I decided that if I was going to try to run the full 17 miles that day, I would probably get sick, so I went home after about 8 miles.

I hope that on the day of the marathon I will:

-complete it in less than 5 hours (they allot you 1 hour/fifth of the race, and if you take more than that, they'll sweep you up in one of their sweep vehicles).

-not poop on myself.

Two modest goals, I think.
