Just what the world needs...

Ok, so the last thing the world needs is another blog. Heaven knows there are too many out there. So, why am I doing this? My first reason is just to document my progress as I prepare to run my first marathon. I know, I could do that in a less public arena, but I thought there may be someone out there that might relate to my experience. I hope to get some feedback from others who have been through or are going through the same things that I am. As I sit here typing this I think that chances are no one will ever see this or care if they do, but what the heck, here I go.
