A few days until training begins!

I cannot believe that I am doing this...  What am I thinking? A full marathon? 

I told myself when I first started running that I would never do this; that running 26.2 miles was too hard on your body and it wasn't worth it.  Half marathons were the perfect distance.  Now look at me: 2 years later and signed up for the 2011 Chicago Marathon.  

And when I signed up in February, the beginning of training seemed so far away! Now I just realized that my training starts this upcoming Monday in 3 days! 

So, what am I going to do about these nerves? Get them out by blogging! 

So...here we go.
