Marathon Training Starts TODAY

Just a quick post today.

I went out today for my first official run of marathon training.  Exciting!  Except that I almost DIED.  Not so exciting, just pushed myself a little harder than I should have following the half marathon on Sunday.  Alas, my 5K run was really more like 4K.  Oh well!

My Grandma and I are leaving tomorrow on a road trip to Calgary.  I'm excited to do a few short runs along the way in some new places and will go for my long run in Calgary on Saturday morning before heading back.  We're going to head through the Okanagan and maybe down through the Kooteneys and back up through Banff.  Hello, Hot Springs!!  I'm going to drive home through Banff and Jasper.  I've been to both in the winter so I'm excited to drive through in the summer.  Think Moose-Repellent thoughts for me!
