But good luck with the traveling! I'm embarking upon a lot of work travel in the next few weeks. You should use the opportunity to run lots of cool new places and tell us about it!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17100746061554733157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3899266033543468974.post-49378054747296820932008-02-01T14:57:00.000-06:002008-02-01T14:57:00.000-06:00Don't listen to those non-runners nay saying you. ...Don't listen to those non-runners nay saying you. (I'm one to talk with non-runner in my name! hah) These are the same people that ask how far is the marathon this year?!! Figure out what is right for you, my dear. If you want it, you'll figure out the time situation. Coffee Betsy has a great post on Runner's Lounge today about fitting it in. We're behind you no matter what you decide.

I TOTALLY understand why you...That's a toughy Jam! I TOTALLY understand why you'd want to go back and I'd want to go back too! I'm all about the "I have to finish what I started" thang! I say, if you are going to do it, do it strictly just to finish and have fun! Not place any time goals on yourself. If you have a busy schedule your training may be a little lacking. This way it won't be just another stressful event added on ;-)Marcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14148093449696230770noreply@blogger.com
