Marathon's and Hanging On.

Well you guys, I do not know if you are following me on twitter, but if you are you probably have seen that I am doing a marathon. There is a marathon going on in a town very close to me Called the New Years Eve Marathon. It is a 5K and I found out about it through my local rec center. There is a program called Couch Potato to 5k. I hate to admit it, but I am SUCH a couch potato! So I am joining this. We meet every saturday morning 830 am and go until 945 ! Great way to wake up huh?

I think this is good for me because I am paying 60 dollars to do this, and so it is an incentive for me to keep up with something, I do not want to be towards the back of the line during the run. I know it is a three mile run, and I have two months to go to get ready for it. I am nervous but excited about this new turn in my life. What do you all think? Can I do it?

My question is, has anyone ever done a marathon? Share your stories :)
