(By the way, I know I’m beyond overdue for race reports. Many have been started and they are on their way. I promise.)

Never say never. I always said I’d never run a marathon. I mean, c’mon, 26.2 miles?? Really, even 13.1 miles is absurd. So anything over a half marathon is just plain ridiculous.
º
But I have plenty of friends who run marathons. They love it. But I just don’t know that my body is meant to go that distance. I ran 15 miles once this summer and it was awful. {insert Grumpy Cat meme} Granted it was the day after I rode 70 miles and it was during a heat and humidity wave.
º
Nonetheless, I’ve decided I’m going to run a marathon anyway. But…you know me, I can’t just run any marathon. If I’m going to do this, it may be the only time I ever do this. So why not do it in style?
º
So, instead of just running a marathon. I’m going to warm up before the run, by swimming 2.4 miles. Yeah, crazy huh?
º
But ya know what? That’s still not enough. I’m going to also ride my bike for 112miles. Absolutely nuts!

So I guess you figured out what my big announcement is by now…
