HEADED TO AUSTIN TEXAS!! UPDATE

THE 2007 ATT AUSTIN MARATHON IS SOLD OUT!! In appreciation, the race committee decided that each finisher in this years race will receive a commemorative stuffed armadillo. COOL!



YEE HAW!!!! I've decided to head to Texas and run in the ATT Austin Marathon on February 18, 2007. I'll be staying with Erin and Bob (friends from Charlotte who recently moved to San Antonio). This will be my first marathon in 2007.... Yeah!

You may remember I was sidelined with an MCL injury in my left knee late last year but over the past several months its healed nicely. A combination of Wal-Mart OTC drugs, two trips to an accupuncturist, and pranic healing did the trick. (watch pranic healing video here)

Anyway, I knocked out a 21 mile run this past Saturday and felt pretty darn good afterwards. Amazing what happens when you focus your "prana". Okay, so now the long run taper begins- 12 miles this weekend followed by an 8 mile run the next.

Stay tuned for a race report and pray it doesn't ice up deep in the heart of Texas on February 18.

Later,

Marc
