Focusing

Today, I signed up for both the Thanksgiving 5 miler and next April's Columbus Half-Marathon, and reserved a hotel room in Columbus. Kind of early, I know, but my hope is that these actions will focus my training on real deadlines. For the most part, I've usually needed well-defined goals in my life rather than vague, indefinite notions of accomplishment. Anyway, hope these commitments provide some assistance in maintaining self-discipline for the next eleven months.

I love races and they help me stay motivated to train. So does reading about running, like marathon books and Runner's World magazine. Good luck!
