Whatever it takes

I was able to get in my long run of 10.34 miles yesterday and burned 1565 calories.  It took my a couple of hours but that is ok.  I have been thinging of doing a marathon I found call Sand Hallow Marathon which is in March.  It starts in Hurricane and runs around Sand Hallow Res.  With the 10 miler and with no injuries the run in doable for me.  I think it is about time to beat myself up with another marathon.  This morning I was 216.8 lbs. which make me happy.  The weight loss is one of the major reasons I am doing all this.  I need to not only get into shape but I need to stay there this time because the older I get the harder is becomes.  Need to get in a couple of runs this weekend to keep off the the little bit of weekend gain that I seem to collect.  I want this bad enough to do whatever it takes.  Just Run
