2 Days and counting...

Well, there's only 2 days till I run the Marathon. I'm feeling good and actually really excited about it. Last week I read Lance Armstrong's biography and it helped me get pumped up. He said something profound that I really hope will get me through the day. He said that pain is temporary but quitting lasts forever. I've decided that I'm running this for my husband and my kids too. This is something that I can show my kids that I actually completed it even when times where tough. I'm excited!!!

First posting

Today is my first post ever on the Ryan blog. Right now Dave is at school studying for the DAT and I am at work, just passing time. I've been rather sick this past week, which makes me somewhat nervous for the marathon which I'm running a week from Saturday. I was actually getting pretty pumped about it, but This week has dampened my spirit somewhat.
