So after the hoopla was over from IMAZ, I decided I needed to stay on the path of fitness and continue, so I signed up for RNR marathon again, this will be my third San Diego RNR marathon, but my fourth marathon overall, and if you count the marathon within IMAZ, then it's really the fifth.
I haven't been very motivated with the training for this marathon, and am really not sure what the marathon Gods will bring me on Sunday. I only hope to beat my best time of 5:01.
IMAZ 2006 seems like an eternity away, but I'm sure it will sneak up fast. I'm planning to run a half marathon in sub-two hours in August, and then might just try and get my base back in gear for triathlons. We're going to watch the Kona IM Championship on Oct 15th, and when we return from Hawaii, that will be the kick-off to my training for IMAZ - should be very motivated at that point!
So, in four days my feet will meet the pavement once again...and we'll just have to see if that 17-miler 'long run' I did about 3-plus weeks ago paid off. All I can tell myself is that I've felt worse 'pain' and done more miles than 26.2....oddly though, I'm not recalling any pain from IMAZ...I really don't know how that happened.
