More on Marathon

You can read that title two ways, can't you?

I am 4-and-a-half weeks away from my third marathon. The mileage is going up. The longs runs are not necessarily getting any longer, but they are getting a little bit faster.

I am running one of the largest marathons in the world on October 28, "The Marine Corps Marathon." I cannot imagine what it is going to be like to line up with 30,000 runners to complete a race like this. Unbelievable.

The best part: it's a family adventure. We will spend a week and a half out in DC and see all the sights. I have never been to DC before, so it is as exciting for me as for my kids (though my amazing wife may be more excited than all of us!).

I can't wait!
