93 days till the Portland Marathon.

I have enjoyed these past few months riding my bike. Being outdoors with the wind on my face and dodging traffic. Also, I have saved a lot of money by not driving. I now have a car, but I haven't given up on my fitness goals. I recently signed up to the Portland Marathon, and though I have talked about running the marathon, signing up and paying makes it official.

Training for a marathon is not like riding a bike. It's a different challenge all together. For one, there is more punishment on your body when you go running. The pounding on the pavement is difficult on your joints but the benefit in the long run (pun intended) is well worth it.

There isn't much time for the marathon, but I'm sure I'll have a good time even with the difficult pounding.
