There's no turning back now


There's no turning back now ... Adam and I have registered for the marathon and purchased our airline tickets. In just 9 short weeks, we'll be running in the only marathon that starts in one country and ends in another ... The Niagara Falls International Marathon. If we're going to run over 26 miles, then it should be in two countries.

Although I set out to do this in January, and somehow convinced my husband to do this with me, I never imagined all of the emotions I'd experience along the way. Even just registering for the marathon brought on emotions I didn't expect, mainly disbelief. Seriously, I really can't believe we're doing this. Even crazier is the fact that I'm beginning to really believe that completing a marathon is possible. Since we've been following Hal Higdon's plan, so much feels possible.

Our only goals for the marathon are to (1) Have fun (2) Finish (3) Not lose our passports on race day and (4) Never, ever say we're running another one.
