Marathon Preparation - From couch to 26.2 miles

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??

Day 27 - Sick Day :(

Had a sudden headache in the afternoon which did not get better in the evening. Slightly better but left me drained. After yesterday's workout, was looking forward to today's, but didn't happen. oh, health is so important in life - something we realise only when we are sick :(
