I got an active.com email yesterday. Most of the time I don't even bother to read these... but not yesterday.
Yesterday I opened that sucker up.
Yesterday I saw that I could register for the 2008 Tom King half marathon.
Yesterday I registered for the 2008 Tom King half marathon.
I realize that I may be biting off more than I can chew. The half marathon is about 17 1/2 weeks away, and I'm still in a walking boot. I haven't run in about 6 weeks, and it will be at LEAST two more weeks until I come out of the boot... maybe longer.
I think I can do it, though. I've not told anyone that my ultimate goal is a marathon. I've definitely not told anyone (or even said this aloud) that my ultimate ultimate goal is to qualify for Boston.
I hate feeling so stagnant. Signing up for this half marathon feels like a step in the right direction... even if it is a hobbled, boot-encased step.

Good luck Jess- take care of that foot. Stress fractures are no fun :( You've got a great attitude and a goal in sight!
I've enjoyed reading your running blog. I'm going through some knee pain myself, training to run my first marathon next year. Best of luck to you!
