I too have run a few half marathons, and have always said I want to do a full one. I know now is when I should be training, before kids. But I cannot seem to get the motiviation to commit myself to that much time!<BR/><BR/>SarahSarah Rodgersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17261195610075664716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2784135403058574688.post-40983868033818101182009-03-03T15:13:00.000-06:002009-03-03T15:13:00.000-06:00Having things to look forward to is a help for sur...Having things to look forward to is a help for sure.
