Entry for March 8, 2007 Four days after race day...
So...the race is behind me and my legs are recovering and almost feel like normal. I ran last nite for the first time....about 9 miles. Felt good. Its amazing how running a 26.2 mile race will make a nine mile run afterwards seem like a short jog. So Monday I was pretty sore and Tuesday morning I was really really sore....especially my abs. But now my healing has really taken hold and I look forward to April 16th and think well why not? I would love to go to Boston and run the race again in front of my Mom and Dad. Would love for Jackie to see the Boston Marathon and what its all about. It is a production. I will probably make the go/no go decision somewhere in the next few days.
So several times a day I still find myself going back to the Little Rock Marathon website or reading the Arkansas Runners Forum. It was just such a great experience that I love reading about it. The race was fun, being there with Jackie was perfect and seeing the Kings there in full effect was awesome. Amazingly, though the race is now four days past fundraising checks continue to pour in. I will be looking to post a final tally sometime next week. Please take a look at the pics from race day linked to the main home page. If you'd like more shoot me a note and I will e-mail you the gallery.
OK, time to work but thanks for stopping by and come back soon.
