half-marathon
a marathon. well, a half of one. really.
this was brought about because beth and todd did the disney half-marathon to celebrate the fact that she was a year cancer-free. as marie and sheri and i were watching people cross the finish line, we all decided we could do that. i was watching people and saying 'she's like 80. we can do this. he's like 70. we can do this. okay, that guy has ONE LEG. we can do this!'
beth managed to finish without ever really training. okay, by the end she was begging for the van to come along and scoop her up, but she made it.
i think she's a little annoyed that now we're into it. i think she was hoping to never cover 13 miles on foot again.
anyhow, weight watchers just posted a plan to get you to 13 miles by the end of the year. since the disney marathon is in january, that works out pretty well. colleen and i are doing laps at work. we're not really sure how far each of our laps is, but we're going with 300 steps and 2000 steps is a mile. heck, its better than sitting at my desk all day, right?

Anything is better than sitting at a desk all day. ;->
And I sort of looked at the NaNo do something scary thing and said "I want to do this but I don't want to think about this." But my job SUCKS SO BAD, that my scary thing is going to be look for another job...again. Which I despise. But that's no fun. So, I guess I'll have to actually read the whole thing and think of something fun. I totally want drums.
