 Posted: 06/07/05 - 23:41 Post subject: I'm officially registered...
online as of Tuesday night for my 1st marathon on October 9th, 9 am (on the Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend) ...and yes, I did sign up for the pasta party...total race fees- $105, the most I've ever paid for a race...I've booked the hotel as well. I'm planning to go with a group of friends to the race though I'm not too sure who's going for sure. Hopefully that'll be sorted out in the next few months.
Less than 18 weeks left and counting down...

From some of the the running you've been reporting, you'll handle this just fine. Much success to you, Tim!

su-weet!
G-Dawg is right, though. You could probably run one next week and be more than okay.

First of all Tim, I'm so excited for you and this decision!!! You have really worked so hard for this and I am going to be watching you every step of the way. I tune in to see how you do with your running all of the time, because you've been working so hard. I'm sure others will attest to the fact that you're really putting out impressive times and putting in outstanding effort to do this 26.2
Usually I keep my comments to you via PM's, but this is something the forum should read. You should be proud of yourself and pat yourself on the back for what you're doing. Some may not know all the effort you've put out, but others REALLY DO! Others know how much sweat, time and the amount of insane miles you've put in...they do.
You're doing great and YOU'RE GOING TO KICK ASS WITH YOUR FIRST MARATHON...not just run one.
~Noley
PS This thread really excites me! To see this happen after all this time...awesome!
