I've made the step that will ensure that I will run the race. I've paid the entry fee. On top of that, I've signed up for the special edition newspaper that details the pre-race activity and gives the race results. I'll be damned if I get a results paper and not have my name in it.
Although I wasn't able to run this past week, I got a vote of confidence from the wife (whether she knew it or not). As with any training, it takes some time away from the family, and we are no different. With me sometimes running at 10p at night, it can be taxing. We were on a neighborhood walk and I was talking about the day of the run and how she could follow my progress online if she wanted because of the chip technology. She made the comment of, "what makes you think I don't want to be there to see you cross the finish line?" Although I know that deep down she supported me getting healthier and completing this goal, it was very uplifting to hear it voiced.
