Making Our Marks: He Did It!

He Did It!

Let it be known throughout the blogosphere:

Alan ran his first Full Marathon!

He did the Maine Marathon on Sunday, October 2nd, a rainy, wet, sopping, drenching, soggy, did I mention wet? day.

I'm so darned proud of my hubby. He worked really hard to get here and had so many ups and downs along the way. It's been an adventure. I'm so lucky to have him inspiring me and supporting me in my running efforts and it's great to see him accomplish something so huge.

Beware: Alan wrote a novel about it and we will be subjecting you to it over the next few posts!

So why is the world's worst correspondent starting a blog???

I can't handle Facebook--it's information [I use the term loosely] overload and (on the rare occasions that I actually look at it) I end up in complete social networking paralysis--but Emilie has this adorable, funny, thought-provoking, quietly inspiring little blog and I've been itching to try my hand. I used to write stuff. Here's my chance to compose little anecdotes and feel like I'm being communicative even if I am using it as an excuse to sit all alone in a book-lined study. If nothing else, some of those digital pictures of which I am so proud might finally find a home where people will actually see them. And maybe, just maybe, something will be posted here that makes someone laugh, or smile, or cry, or feel a renewed sense of wonder or love or self-worth or perspective...just like Emilie's blog does for me. But probably I'll mostly just talk about food.
