I think this is a GREAT way to keep yourself motivated and held accountable. I might even do something like this someday if I ever do a marathon. Of course, I could never expect to run it with the shape my knees are in, but I'd love to at least complete one. I'll be following your posts.

PS. Everyone needs a break now and then...don't beat yourself up for it. :)
