What a Slippery Slope Feels Like

All right, I admit it. I did it. I know said I could quit whenever I want, that I wouldn't become one of "those" people who go in for the hard stuff.

But, c'mon. Is it really hurting anybody? I'm an adult. I can handle it. You see people all the time who do this kind of thing. They seem all right, they haven't gone over the edge. They're leading normal, functional lives.

Yep. I started looking at the half marathon training program today and thinking how I might be able to squeeze that in between work, school, and parenting. It doesn't look so bad, really.

Don't worry about me. I'm fine.

Did I not predict this about six months ago?

Go for it -- the half is a blast and it is manageable training-wise.

Totally do it! I can't wait to hear all about your training adventures :) And I definitely know what it's like to get sucked into running when you never thought you would... my goal for 2008 was just to finish ONE half-marathon, and now I've done four halves and three fulls!
