Getting in Shape

crazy but going for it

So as many of you know, I have been training for the Richmond marathon in November, and I have been working on it for months.  Well, I'm in pretty awesome shape by now and feel like I can complete the marathon physically without any problem.  Trouble is, I am getting SO SICK of running that I'm going crazy!  So, I have decided to switch my Richmond entry to a half marathon and go ahead and run the full marathon this weekend at Harper's Ferry, WV.  My goal time is slower, but I honestly believe I can finish (hey I ran 20 miles last weekend, what's another 6, right?)  I know this is pretty much contrary to every training guide I've ever heard of, but I'm not going for speed, and I have no problem walking part of it if I need to.  I can do this, and then I can have my life back!!  I'm so excited!!!!
