Today is not a training day. I'm resting. But only because the training calendar says that's what I'm supposed to be doing today.
Nonetheless, I felt this day warranted its own blog post. Today, September 30, 2011, is the day I bit the bullet and registered for the Rite Aid Cleveland Marathon! It's scheduled for Sunday, May 20th.
And, immediately after submitting my registration payment, I just about fell out of my chair. Before today there was a chance I was all talk. Before today, I had an easy out. Before today, running a marathon was just something I wanted to do. Today it became a thing I was going to do. A thing I planned on. A thing I spent money on and, therefore, something I should follow through with. That $70 registration fee just made it that much more likely that I will actually accomplish this goal after all. And as cool as that fact is, the one thing that continues to come to mind is...
HOLY SHIT...
