hi, i'm kate and i ran a marathon

i kind of want to introduce myself that way. i'm so lame.

i read this today. man oh man. i want to do that again. i can do that again! my body craves running, methodical breathing, tight muscles, the constant beat, beat, beat of my shoes on the pavement. i know that, yet i've only been running once or twice a week for the past few months. it's time to train again.

tomorrow i'm getting up early and going for a long, slow run.

i am.

i'm probably going to wear my medal, too.

Totally. I would.

I just found my medal for graduating #9 in my HS class. I was really thinking that puppy needs to be on display somewhere.

Oh, and how did I miss all these posts? Did you change blog addresses? I'm on board and all updated now.

you can! I want to, but I don't see it in my future, I have ADD when it comes to running--can't imagine running for more than 1 hour.

do it wear your medal proudly my dear that is an amazing thing you did, plus maybe you can start a new fad?

kind of how they introduce actors as "academy award winner, sandra bullock". you are "marathon runner, kate lines!"

demand it from your public.
