Still waiting....

The great Snoopy once said..."anticipation far exceeds the actual event." (I swear he did) Right now, I am sitting here looking at my computer, hitting the REFRESH button and all that pops up is..."New York City Marathon Lottery still in progress. Please check back later." Team McGraw (http://www.tugmcgraw.org/) with the Tug McGraw Foundation is running New York and while I know that I am already selected for the marathon with Team McGraw, I just want to see if I had a better chance of getting hit by lightning or if I might hit the jackpot and be selected to the ING New York city Marathon.

STILL WAITING....

So, while I am doing that, I am looking for travel arrangements and more importantly trying to put together a game plan for my upcoming races. Not only am I running the Chicago Marathon and New York City Marathons with Team McGraw, I have decided to venture out and host my own race. It is called Joggin for the Noggin 5k Fun/Run Walk (http://www.jogginforthenoggin.com/) So I am trying to put together a training plan that would include all three. I have never used a training program for my marathons and I am thinking that this year might be a good time to start. My only problem is that I think that my long runs will have to be on Thursday mornings between 2am and 7am (kidding). But it is kind of along that line that I realize that you have to make time to run. I guess the word make is wrong it should be WANT to run.

Okay....it is currently 9:30 (CST) no word on the lottery so....I guess I will go for a run...not because I have to but because I want to.
