Busman's Holiday
Holy crap. Kirk already posted how we have less than three months before the Boston Marathon.
I have two days until the Frozen Half Marathon, which for me, is the opener to my racing season.
I am not exactly overly-prepared for both. In my defense, it's been absurdly cold. Like many Minnesotans I have been relegated to the treadmill during this cold snap. Emily joined Lifetime Fitness a few weeks ago, and last I joined her. So I haven't been running outside in over a week.
But tonight I am going to see this movie. So if I can't train for the marathon properly, maybe I can just perfect the art of watching a movie about a marathon.

OK Mike. You may be old and crotchety, and the fast livin' days of your youth may be behind you. But three months is a long time, and you have to remember the years of training you have in your legs don't just disappear.
You just need to channel a little Christine Clark: The woman who surprised everyone by winning the US Women's Marathon Trials in 2000. Injured most of the season and living in Anchorage, she did most of her training on a treadmill. . . and then crushed the women's field by over two minutes.
you have more labels for this post than words. awesome. marathon movie rocked, if only because the lynches were featured.
