I’ve signed up for the summer marathon course with Rogue Training Systems. My plan is to run the Chicago marathon on October 22, 2006. This is my first out-of-town marathon, and my first to train over the hot hot Austin summer. I’ve selected the Boston Qualifying group, which is the most mileage, and most intense group. I’ll be running with people much younger than I and at the far back of the pack. When I asked the coach Mac Allen if it would be ok to join his group he said sure that there’d be some women to run with (guys are too fast for me at my age) – sheesh.
