... always tomorrow. As of late there’s been a severe lack of running going on around here. Between vacationing in St. Lucia, camping trips, entertaining guests from the UK, birthday parties, BBQs and a ton of other things it seems like I never have time to run. Of course it doesn’t help that when I have had time to run I’ve chosen to sit on the couch instead, I guess I can’t blame it all on scheduling problems.
Since brute force of will power seems to be failing me, I’ve decided that I need to sign up for a fall half marathon. Nothing motivates like that ‘oh crap I’m not ready for this’ feeling that you get from seeing a race looming on the calendar that you’ve already paid for. I actually wanted to run the Denver Rock ‘n’ Roll Half this year but it’s less than 6 weeks away and Oh crap, I’m not ready for that! It’s also $115 which lands somewhere between excessive and extortion, both topics that I know plenty about as a banker.
If you know of a good fall marathon (preferably late fall) then let me know in the comments because training starts tomorrow!
Any particular region? Are you willing to fly or does it have to be driving distance?
ReplyDeleteI think I'd prefer one within driving distance.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the Boulder Marathon on 10/21? Only problem is that late registration is still $115. http://www.bouldermarathon.com/
ReplyDeleteI've actually always wanted to do the Boulder Marathon.
