45 days....

...thats what I have till the Houston Marathon.

Am I excited.....nope.

Am I nervous....nope.

I am pretty much at a point where it is what it is at this point. I have said before, I have never had a burning desire to run a marathon. It has never been a "bucket list" item of mine. If it wasn't for the Ironman I probably would have gone my whole life without doing one.

Now I am sure as the days gets a little closer I will start to get anxious, maybe even a little nervous. But at this point, its pretty anti-climatic for me.

Training is going ok. I know I have 6 weeks, and probably need to get 3 more long runs in of 15 miles or more. Last week I ended up putting in 27 miles total between all my runs, and next week, I am shooting to put in 30 or more. And some point in the next 6 weeks will come the dreaded 20 mile training run. But at this point, everything is what it is.

Maybe to get pumped up I need to figure out a costume to wear on race day....
