The idea (as of today :)), is to do all the groundwork and start the preparation of the Marathon (which marathon?-that again comes in the pre-preparation part ;)) from November 1st 2007. My sister was at my apartment with this idea and we decided to take the first step and create a blog. She is an avid blog/health magazine reader and will definitely do all the research required to run a marathon - whether she implements it or not is a different question ;).
365 days, 1 year, 2 inactive bored sisters, one thinks any goal is too small for her, the other wants to try everything but is not sure where to start. So Ok, the challenge- run the first full marathon within 365 days. Start date: Nov 1st 2007 End date : Nov 1st 2008. Will we be able to do it??
OUR GOAL - NIKE WOMEN'S MARATHON (OCT 19, 2008)
Nov 1, 2007-------------->FEB - 9Mleft--------------->MAY - Completed Half Marathon!!!! 6Mleft---------------->AUG - 3Mleft--------------->Oct 19, 2008 -D DAY!!
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED - We were able to complete, yes complete :) the Nike Marathon - our first marathon - in about 6 hrs 40 mins.Our next goal - Lose weight!!! 36 pounds in 365 days - a lofty one considering that even the marathon training couldn't help us lose a few of the extra pounds.
