Tomorrow is the Marine Corps Marathon. It’s hard to believe that it’s been a year since I ran it. I started this blog to have an outlet during training and not drive all of my friends and family crazy. I chose the name “MCM Mama” without considering that I might keep writing after the marathon. Yet, here I am still writing, still running albeit much shorter distances these days. Sometimes I wonder if I should change the name of my blog or maybe just come up with something else to have MCM stand for (I know you can help me out here, Glaven). I’d better start figuring out my 2010 calendar as I’m feeling a bit lost LOL.
I went out for a nice, slow, rainy 3.5 mile run today. My legs were a bit heavy, thanks to running 10 miles on Thursday and then spending yesterday at a Fall Festival and then at Boo at the Zoo. I was really feeling all that hilly walking in my glutes this morning when I ran.
Tomorrow is supposed to be a perfect fall day. I’ll enjoy my planned short run while thinking of all the runners out doing 26.2. Good luck Amy and all the other runners!
Wow! A year since you the Marine Corps Marathon. Your blog was one of the first I found when I started blogging and I had no idea at the time what the MCM even was! I am so jealous of your fall weather. It was about 95 degrees here today and it's supposed to stay like that for the next week or so. Grrr…
It'll be interesting to see what Glaven can come up with.Good luck to MCM'ers! Can't wait to read race reports 🙂
I can't believe G has left the MCM alone so far. MMmm, he must be sick! Not just a sickO.
I have a friend running MCM today. Sounds like you have lovely weather for running.You can always be MCM Mama, but maybe a different title for the blog itself?
I can't believe it has been a whole year! Sounds like the perfect fall weekend you are having. Nice job on both of the runs. I see rain and have no desire to go outside.
Hope everyone has fun at MCM! Can't believe another year has already gone by!
MCM was my first marathon, in 2007! It will always hold a special place in my heart, it was SO fun! I actually hope to do it again one day…
Since the MCM has meaning for you- I think you can use the name in any way you like. Sounds like great weather where you are – I wouldn't mind some drizzle or rain, for that matter.
i wasn't sure that that's the MCM you referred to in your title, also curious about what Glaven will come up with LOL
MCM is on my someday to-do list. Glad you're having some good fall weather.
If it helps any, I had no idea what the MCM stood for in your name anyway. It's all good in the hood. 🙂
I can honestly admit that I have NEVER clued into the "MCM" part f your title until now. DUH!!!
