Today's my 1st training day for the 2005 New York Marathon!
I figure if I tell enough people that I'm running in it, I can't back out. Yeah, I know it's in November, but trust me, I need 9 months..

1. Go For It!
My younger brother decided at 40 yrs old to train for the Chicago Marathon. He dropped 50lbs, starting with a treadmill and diet changes, then jogging, then did 18 weeks of intense training for it, and he ran it and finished it! He's run two other's since then, and he's now training for his first triathalon.

So go for it...
