Marathon Weekend is here! On Sunday I'll be doing the Steamtown Marathon for the first time. (Not my first marathon, but my first time doing our local one.) I'm hoping for a PR ("personal record") in this race of less than 4 hours.
I will also be wearing The Number. (Our local running club is called the 4:15 Club. It's a tradition that one member of the club wear the bib number 415 in the marathon. This year, they gave it to me.)
I don't know if it's the hometown thing, the number thing, the time goal, or the fact that so much of the course is downhill that I'm worried about burnout, but I'm probably more nervous about this race than I've been in a while!
Wish me luck, friends!
