Attempting sub 3 hour

I have not blogged for a while and I am ready to put a good effort into my races again. I did race in Boston in the spring of 2009 and was somewhat discouraged by my result. I started cycling and I really enjoy it. However, even though I have placed really well in the 2 sprint duathlons that I completed, I want to try and better my 3:02 marathon. Yeah, I want bragging rights for a sub 3. The training will be difficult. I have gained about 10 to 15 pounds since that 3:02.
