NYC Marathon



On November 4, 2007, Rebecca and I will be running the New York City Marathon! We applied with 98,000 others in May and anxiously awaited the lottery results, which were posted on June 12. Rebecca was accepted but I wasn't, so Rebecca worked the system to sign me up to run through Meals on Wheels. The catch? I have to raise $2,500 big ones between now and race day. Click here to check out my personal website to learn more:
I was first inspired to run a marathon when Emily and I flew out to support Rebecca during the Salt Lake City Marathon last summer. I ran 5 spontaneous miles with her with no troubles. Earlier this spring, I ran a half marathon and survived. So I felt that another 21.2 miles would be a "piece of cake." We'll see. Above are some photos from my previous races but that was just a 10k and a half marathon so we shall see what happens! Just remember:
LIFE IS A GARDEN....DIG IT!!!!
