Ready, Set, Go

A little less talk, a lot more action. That is what I am feeling as far as the beginning of this training goes. We can talk ourselves til blue in the face but the dash around the colloseum will not happen until we quit saying how cool it would be to run 26.2 in Rome. At least, it will be easy to get to, all roads lead there right?

And who doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of Julius Caesar, and collapse in the middle of cobblestone roads brown with the blood of caesars, nazis, and protestants alike. I do. I finished a 40 minute run today. Had a nice long run on SUnday, and am eager to get after it tomorrow.

The wise mage said, " Beware the ides of march" and I don't know exactly the day of the marathon but it would be poetic justice for my body to deal me "the cruelest cut of all" at mile 22 of March "whenever the ides of march is/are"?

Questions:
Are the Herzogs in?
Does your knee feel okay Dad?
Does your hip feel ok, Katie?
What does the course look like?
WHat date is the race?
What do tickets cost right now to go?
What time is it starting?

See you all in cyberspace
