i have made an executive decision re marathon... not running in AC
something in my gut was telling me that maybe i shouldn't run the AC marathon... i couldn't shake it, so i decided to approach it systematically.
* i've been feeling insecure. * DS has been away for three weeks and hasn't been running
i decided to look into things and found that AC's maximum time is faster than i feel i can finish a marathon... how i didn't notice that earlier is just crazy!!
so i took a look at philly's marathon, which is in november... their maximum time is well within my reach. it even gives me an extra 2 minutes per mile!!
running in philly means no hotel... which saves a truckload of money.
after considering all of these details, i decided that it would be in my best interest to run my first marathon in philly instead of AC.
i feel very good about my decision! yesterday, i hit the road and ran a lovely 6 miles.
can't wait for DS to be back tomorrow so we can get back to our training!
thanks for reading
can't wait to be back with a race report from philly

Sounds like a great decision. I ran the Philly half about 3 years ago and LOVED it! It's a great course.
