I just sent out my registration for the Green Mountain Marathon. $22 plus the $4.80 priority mail so it gets there before October 1. Instead of $27 the day before. Hmmm. Anyway, feels good to have it all done and in place.
I completed the Disney Marathon registration the other day, so that is all done too. $125! That is crazy, but I guess if you can get it, you might as well go for it.
I am starting to think about my target times for both races. I had planned on a progressive improvement - hopefully cutting to the 4:45 at Green Mountain, then maybe 4:30 at Disney. With this arm, though, that it pretty much out the window. Right now, I am walking at an approximate 15:00 pace, which is close to a 7 hour marathon. Looks like the Green Mountain Marathon has a 6 hour limit. I very well may get a DNF. Or be the last person over the finish line. Oh well; I will do my best.
I have a full 18 weeks between the Green Mountain and Disney. That should be enough time to focus on some speed work, and see what I can do. Will be researching that soon.
Love the new shoes!
