there are certainly many pluses for national! it’s always tempting to hop into the next marathon sooner rather than later (especially when you want a little revenge) but i must agree it’s wiser to give yourself more time. i’m gonna admit… you may have talked me into this one!

Yay! You’re in!!!!!! I hope to be in that support group – Long Runs in DC? Yes, please! I’ll help remind you why we chose to run in sub 20-temps. Just remember those Crazy-Hot 100* HUMID August days…..ugh. Gross.
When it’s appropriate to start a countdown, just let me know…..

A small marathon close to home is definitely a plus. All your resources are near. There’s less bobbing and weaving through the crowd.

wow… there was a scuffle in a pace group?! I wouldn’t expect drama like that at a race.

Good luck with winter training! I’ll be out in the Chicago winter training for a spring marathon too. sub-zero temps + lots of wind + ice = Chicagoland running.

i am proud of you. i think that the National Marathon should have on it’s “pro” list also the semi-chance of a do-over. You felt your worst in DC… and now let’s look to the NM to have a chance to show DC your best. after all, you DO own that town. Mostly, I am glad that you are going for it again so I can follow your progress. cheers!
