Start tomorrow(?)

New training regimen begins tomorrow...in theory. Motivation levels are very low and that has got to change. No real plans at this point.

ISO marathon y Oakland

My friend Alex wants me to run the Oakland Marathon in March. I have this goal to run sub-3:00 hours in the marathon for once in my life. In trying to get myself back to where I want to be as a runner and indeed, as a person, this goal is more than just time for me. But here's the conundrum: http://www.oaklandmarathon.com/Race_Information/Marathon.htm Click on the site, look at the course profile. Mostly freaking uphill for the first 10 miles makes me a little (a lot) worried this is not going to be a fast course. This is the first Oakland marathon in 25 years so there is nothing to go by wrt prior results. Thoughts anyone.

INI: Run Time

This? Random thoughts that almost no one will read. Perhaps a waste of time? I hope not. I'm attempting to become a runner again, here in public.
