can't win....

I think I mentioned this but I choose to do a spring marathon versus the fall marathon so that I wouldn't have to train during hot summer months. So here I am stuck in a hot gym, on a treadmill!!! You just can't win....and of course this winter we are actually getting snow, unlike last winter. I am not complaining, I know we need this snow and plus it's fun for the kids...I wish we were actually getting more! But as far as outdoor runs go, it's not a good thing.

I am sorta sad that I am not running the Chicago Marathon. The high price and large crowd sorta detered me from registering for it. Plus I mentally want to get this first marathon done and finished and wanted to do it sooner (spring) rather than later (fall). I would register for the Chicago Marathon but don't want to have to put my family through another round of marathon training, especially during the summer. So I will stick with my original plan of my annual birthday Chicago Half Marathon run and PR!!!
