It's official: I've signed up for my annual marathon


I had to go in for one of the editors tonight, so during some down time, I forked over 90 plus bucks to enter the 2008 White Rock Lake Marathon in Dallas. Its on Dec. 14.


While I was on the site, I looked at my two previous results. I mean, I already know what my times were, but it was shocking to see them on the screen...


2007......5:20:22


2005.......4:41:45


I guess these times are why I'm running White Rock a third time. It's like I've said to others, White Rock is like an old girlfriend....She dumped me in 2005 and again in 2007. Now, I wanna show her that I'm better looking (trained better) and I've got more money (faster), so wait till she lays her eyes on me in December.


After I go sub 4 on her, I'm dumping her.

Cool, so you must be aiming to take at least an hour off last years time??? That's hard to imagine but your 5k time and long run points that way. Good luck in the training.

but I'm sure you have good memories of each time even if she dumped you...Dumping her is going to feel even better. Here is to a sub 4 (cabernet in hand)

Yeah, I hope to leave White Rock in the dust - maybe shave 100 minutes from last year's marathon... But I think I need a year or two more of training before Boston gives me the time of day.

Sorry dude, I think she came out ahead on the money ($$) side.
