Ok. I'm In.

I've procrastinated the decision long enough that I don't have all the training time I want. Sooo....it won't be my prettiest marathon ever, but I think I can finish it.



I would like it noted, however, that I feel sorry for anyone who tries to mess with me like this at mile 19.

As always, some song lyrics come to mind...

Your meters may overload
You can rest at the side of the road
You can miss a stride
But nobody gets a free ride

You go girl!

Tay said...

Woohoo! Go Randi!

You have my admiration. However, running for that long is just not my thing. :) Good luck!

Stacey said...

Go Randi! Run for the both of us since I will never run a marathon. ;)

Emmy said...

That video was just too funny, makes me want to try the same :)

I know far too many people doing marathons. It makes me look very lazy.

Yvonne said...

I admire you--way to go.

Loralee and the gang... said...

wow! I would've punched that guy in the face! And what's with the running in place guy? He must really be dehydrated...
And good for you on the marathon. I know I am a loooonnnggg way from being able to do something like that!
:~D

Why. Wouldn't you rather spend all that precious time cleaning out your closets? I'm just sayin'.

Amy Peterson said...

LA marathon stuff lol!!!
I am so proud of you for going for it!

Melissa said...

Good for you!! As for "Cousin Sal" someone needs to slap that guy!!

mindyluwho said...

That was a good laugh! But I'm not laughing at you running! YOU GO!!!

That is just plain MEAN. Even if I do think all those people are just plain crazy for running in the first place, Cousin Sal should be taken by helicopter nineteen miles out in the Mojave Desert with no water, and see how he likes it.

You are amazing! I'm so impressed. And the LA marathon clips were so mean!!! Funny, but mean!

Jennifer said...

If you have run a marathon....there is no way to see that other than CRUEL and mean!! I don't think I could have been rational or nice to the guy playing the joke!!

Congrats for setting a goal. It always helps me get out of bed.

Dave said...

Tori said...

Just please don't squat and pee on the side of the road like I saw this one chick do...

A conga line after 19 miles sounds like a lot of fun.

Go Randi Go.
