At this very moment Brad is running his first marathon. He is participating in the Air Force Marathon at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio. He has been dedicated to his training, running over 300 miles in the past three months! I've been impressed, but I think we'll both be glad when he is done.Tomorrow it's my turn...I'll be swimming in the Atlantic in the Lower New York Bay by 7:45am...ahhh. I don't think I realized this was an ocean swim when I registered for the Danskin. I'm freakin out a little about the thought. However, despite the poor projected forecast and the fact that I'm going stag to the event...I'm looking forward to my first Danskin. In the tri community they aren't known for their difficulty as much as they are for the inspirational stories you'll find! I'm guessing at least half of the participants are probably first timers so there is a lot of excitement and enthusiasm...hope that is enough to get me into the water for the swim!

I am so, so jealous of Brad! I wanted to go to Ohio to run the half marathon, but my husband just couldn't handle me jumping on an airplane to go RUNNING, for goodness sake. I'll have more time to wear him down next year so hopefully I can go.
Good luck to both of you! It's so awesome that the two of you are showing your girls that exercise and a competitive spirit are very good things!
Good luck, to both of you!
duh-nuh, duh-nuh, duh-nuh... just kiddin. Enjoy your ocean swim! You can do it! And great job to Brad too... pretty cool, you guys. BTW, your girls are getting so big! What is up with all the facial injuries in your family?!!! Brooke is just adorable... even in her band-aids.
