This is my first attempt to run a marathon. I’m going to use this blogspace to try to explain my desire, set my goals, track my progress, and share stories from along the way. More than anything, this is a diary to keep me on track. If people happen to enjoy it, that’s nice too.

Feel free to share tips and tricks in the comments. Any insults, trolling, or generally unsupportive participation (whether targeted at me or at one another) will be promptly deleted.
