22 miles up in duluth as a 'practice' run...all but the final 4 miles of the marathon route.
the weeks in between are 13 milers on saturdays.
i hear i won't die during thie process.
i'll believe that at the end when the medal is on my neck. until then? i'm pretty freaked out. and taking it one day (and yes, mile) at a time...
i'm now officially in the 'great unknown' of training. new mileage that i've never even attempted before. the folks who train for a marathon *alone* still blow my mind. they are superheroes. i am just as thankful to have a group that i know is there for me and will be counting on me to show up on these long run saturdays...so off i go...
have a great easter weekend ~

I admire you on so many levels Jen. What a beautiful morning for such a long run : )
E and Z were asking about you yesterday when we drove past the library. I explained about the move and they wanted to make sure you would be moving too and coming back, it was cute and sweet : )
Take care!!
