Philly Marathon

Jody and I will be running in the Philadelphia Marathon on Sunday morning. As runners we are timed by little chips that we tie to our shoes, and there will be several split times recorded along the way. You can sign up here to have our times sent, in real time, to your email or as a text message to a cell phone.

Not that I think you care what we are doing, but it just sounded fun!

Jody's 21 and I'm almost 50. My goal is to give up less that a minute a mile to him. So that means finishing within 26 minutes of his time. This will be a real challenge, and there's only a slim chance I'll be able to pull it off! 45 minutes would probably be a lot more realistic.
