Some day I want to run the Boston Marathon. In order to meet that goal I have to run a qualifying race in under 3 hours and 40 minutes. Yes. That may seem like no big deal but for me, it is! That is a whole 220 minutes or 13,200 seconds to run 26.2 miles. I would have to run every mile in under 8 minutes and 39 seconds. For a shorter race, that would be no problem. Once I am in shape of course. But running that pace for a whole 26.2 miles. I don't know if I can do it, but I am sure going to try.
I don't necessarily dream of actually running the Boston Marathon but qualifying for it would just be such an accomplishment for me. Ben says that if we both qualify we will actually go! So hopefully sometime next year we can qualify!
