February 8th

Scott said he did at least 25 miles of walking in NYC this weekend. He had the blisters to prove it. Today he skied 4 miles.

Today I did upper body weights and 3.5 miles of running. Today I was 3 mins faster (37 mins). I think I am near my goal for Feb. of 3 miles in 33 mins. I will test it Wed. I am glad I posted the goals here on the blog so I can be accountable.

This looks like a fun running event.

Race possibility

How about the MAINE Marathon? It is not exotic or new to any of us but it would be a pretty race. Oct 4th I think, It will be peak colors for fall.

Other reasons are entirely selfish- travel expenses and what to do with the kids, etc.. The race site didn't have pictures but I know the route is well chosen. Here is the link to the comments section. I thought they were nice. Of course we would be happy to host family racers here. We can make lots of room.
