So IT begins.

I won't take the time to bore you with a big long story as to why "it begins" (there will be plenty on that in the future) but just so you know - I started running again this weekend. It was nothing big mind you (only just under a mile in approx. 10 minutes or so) but it was a start to what I hope will carry me to the finish line of the SF Marathon in July 2006.....WHOA - you say. Kind of drastic no? Inspired by both my brother-in-law and my sister-in-law (who both have finished the Honolulu Marathon) I figured what a better way to celebrate a major milestone in my life than beating the hell out of my body for 26 miles.

Like I said - there will be much more on this to follow but for now know that I have at least gotten started and for many that is the toughest part.
