seoul international marathon training update #5

bad news.
and worse news.

okay. the bad news first.
well, i haven't been training consistently in the last 3 weeks.
not so great considering the looming full marathon coming up in about 5 weeks.

yikes, dude. ok. well, hit me with the worse news.
well, remember when i mentioned that full marathon?
i have a half-marathon next week.

this should make for a very interesting, if not at least slightly painful, situation.

i guess we will only see what happens.
you live and you learn.
(insert another arbitrary conventional wisdom here).

unfortunately, any last minute tune-ups will be quite limited as well, due to a lunar new year's trip to shanghai to meet some friends.
details to come in the next post, probably post-voyage.

on the upside, for only $30, in the race packet (which was sent in the mail to me, rather than me having to pick it up (how sweet is that!)) i received a running tank-top, running shorts and running pants.
of course, along with the largest bib number i've seen in my life.
quite a diminuitive feeling.

anyway. it's past my bedtime.
and i felt the blogging itch since i haven't scratched in a couple weeks.

solid update about my school coming soon ^^

lots of love,

jo
