On September 16, 2008, I set a goal to run 26.2 miles by the time I turned 26.2 years old.
I met that goal well before my February 5, 2010 cut-off, and my second marathon (this weekend) would qualify as well!
Fun fact: As of the summer of 2008, the longest distance I had ever run was about 3 miles … and I’m pretty sure it almost killed me.
