My First "Official" 26.2 Registered

So I signed up for my first "official" marathon.  I say "official" because I did complete an ultra 30 mile race (really 31.25 miles) about 2 years ago. See post here.  It was not official because I was officially signed up for the 15 mile race. Bonnie loves to remind me of that.  :-)  But I did run over 30 miles so it counts in my books.

I will be doing the 26.2 With Donna in Jacksonville, FL in February.  I've done their 13.1 for many years and love the race.  The 26.2 should also be fun.

I will be doing the marathon in preparation for the Ironman Florida FULL 2014.  Yes, I will be doing my first FULL Ironman in 2014!

  2. WOW!! Congrats congrats!! So exciting.
    I'm tempted to do that race myself - I have family in Jacksonville so I've actually run into the Deegans at the beach before ;)
    I might be doing the River Run 15K this March. I'm anxious to watch your progress for the IM!! As we say in the opera business: "Corraggio!"
