When Meegan called and asked if I'd like to join Portland Fit with her and train for the Portland Marathon I barely let her finish before saying yes. Training and running in a marathon has always been something I've wanted to do. I just never got up off the couch to do it. In the past ten weeks I've gone from a 1 mile running capability to finishing my first 1/2 marathon, met Geri a great addition to our running team, and discovered that hills are way more fun then long stretches of never ending blacktop. Most importantly I've enjoyed the company of Meegan and all our Paris Hilton bashing, our Saturday morning after run breakfasts and garage sales, and her continuous positive encouragement on those long long long runs.
