marathon training

Today was my first training run for my 20 week marathon preparation.  I'm not sure how I really feel about that.  It's exciting.  It's overwhelming.  Deep down, it's REALLY scary.

After my EPIC FAIL run on Saturday...when my KNEE HURT {my knee doesn't hurt when I run} and I had to WALK {there's no walking in running} and I put out the bat signal...{which was received, but I had neglected to tell Mike where I would actually be running, so he ignored the bat signal}, I have been afraid to run.  I've stretched out my tight hamstrings.  I've rolled my IT bands.  I've rested.  I've worried.  And I ran again today.  And I could.  And my knee didn't hurt.  And my tight hamstrings are better.  And I CAN do this marathon thing...I hope.
Today was day one.  I've got 5 miles of marathon training on my legs...
Deep Down, it's really REALLY scary.
