My husband's been super swamped with work and Boy Scouts and of course this marathon training he's been torturing himself with. I'm in awe of how much time and commitment a marathon takes by the way, so to all of you tough cookies out there who have finished one or more, you're amazing! Witnessing the aftermath of a 19 mile "practice run" has been a real eye opener for me and has strengthened my resolve to avoid any kind of activity that includes ice baths or eating "Goo". Not only do I not have the endurance to run more than a couple of miles (one), I don't have the attention span. So I will sit here with my muffin top for another month or so until gardening season is in full swing and then get back to work doing something physical I actually enjoy. Win win.ps. He is running for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, by the way, which is a superb organization that fights the blood cancers that affect so many children and adults. So if you're interested in pledging, he just got his page up! http://mch.cmm2010.llsevent.org/pledge/index.cfm?mid=SCOTTNASHVILLEMARATHONLLS You don't want him to end up looking like this guy for nothing!
pps. You don't have to pledge to comment.

I run...and still have the muffin top. But it's more like a spare tire of pudge...muffin top sounds too delicate.
I hate gardening and would rather run...unless it's raining and there are worms on the sidewalk...which is the problem with gardening...worms...yuck
Yes bring on the garden and just for fun info... I was so close to puking the last time I ran a 5k that if my kids weren't cheering me on at the end I would have just done exactly that!
That is amazing! What a special thing to be willing to train & exert yourself so extensively for a great cause.
Way to go Scott!! Super proud of you.
