Thought for the Day

Marathoning is like cutting yourself unexpectedly. You dip into the pain so gradually that the damage is done before you are aware of it. Unfortunately, when awareness comes, it is excruciating.

Plans for 2007

Plans for 2007 at the start of the year. I do expect things to change.

I already have a lot of events lining up for next year. I am more or less committed to all of these:

1/14/07 Rock 'N' Roll Arizona Marathon

Three marathons/ultras in three weeks in February:
2/4/07 Desert Classic Marathon
2/10/07 Pemberton Trail 50K
2/18/07 Lost Dutchman Marathon
Three marathons in three weeks will make me a gold level Marathon Maniac, while I am currently a lowly bronze level Marathon Maniac.
I'll do these events just to have fun and get some good training miles in.

3/30-31/07 Relay Del Sol, 12 person, 192 mile relay through the desert around Phoenix and the Valley of the Sun.

4/16/07 Boston

4/21-22/07 Ahwatukee Relay for Life, overnight fund-raising event for the American Cancer Society.

4/29/07 Big Sur Marathon Relay

5/18-19/07 East Valley Runners Grand Canyon Double Cross

Really want to do this:
8/19/07 Pikes Peak Marathon
I was second in the Arizona Road Racers Grand Prix Series last year, so I would really like to do at least 10 of these races:
