Running My Dream to Boston

Today it is 24 weeks until I run the Boston Marathon in April 2010.
This is my very first blog, so let's hope I learn fast how to use it. 
I was inspired to blog when I watched the movie, Julie & Julia.

When I was in my twenties I was watching an old black and white TV with my brother. He was watching the Boston Marathon and he told me what a great Marathon it was to run! 
For years I wrote as one of my goals to "Run the Boston Marathon". 
Finally in March 2008 ( at aged 53) I thought I had better shut up about this goal or get on and do it !!! When I was out shopping one day I came across a personal training studio so I went in & asked the woman if she thought I could run a Marathon. She said, "Do you have a pulse!" Of course, I said yes. Then she said, "Well then, you can run a Marathon".
 So here I am a year or so on from that day. The woman, Michelle, wrote me a few running programs to get me well on my way to run in the Boston Marathon.

This blog is to tell you all about my progress to run my dream run to Boston stay tuned for more !!
