I think I may have gone nuts.
Amanda from Manderz Road to a New Life asked me if I wanted to run a race with her. She lives near me and although we haven't had a chance to meet up yet, I know she's cool from reading her blog and from our email "conversations." So, I agreed to the race. Only, it isn't just a race. It's a marathon relay. In February. Have I mentioned that we live in upstate New York where the winters are cold and the average temps in February range from 16 to 34 degrees?
Sign me up!
It's a three-person relay and Amanda has asked another blogger as well, but she might have a conflict that weekend so she's not sure if she can do it. I think it would be awesome to run the marathon relay with these two other bloggers. I mean, what fun! But, the weather . . . it could be tough. We'll see what happens!
In the meantime, I'm returning my running shoes. I contacted the store and they said they'd take them back so as soon as I can get on that, I'll get on that. I've been running in an older pair of shoes -- same Brooks Addictions -- and I've had no problems at all. I'll stick with those until I get a replacement pair. So, yay for that.
And with that, I'm off. Have a great day!

So glad they are taking the shoes back. Good luck with the next pair!
The relay sounds fun! But in February you never know what might happen! Its going to be interesting to say the least!
That is COLD! You may have jumped on the crazy train :)
Glad they are taking the shoes back!
That is wonderful they are taking the shoes back! I think the relay sounds like fun :-)
that race sounds like fun!!!
How much fun with THAT be??? I'm jealous. I've heard of relays, and I have a few friends that have run them, but I have yet to have that amazing experience. I'm glad you agreed to it, even though the weather will be a little chilly.
And, yay on the return. That's a good company that will take them back.
What a great opportunity for you! Very exciting.
Good about the shoe return. I hope your next pair doesn't give you troubles like this one did!
Racing in February ... brrrrrr! You're brave, but I'm sure it will be a really cool experience. I'd love to be part of a marathon relay team some day.
Good news that the store will take back the shoes!
that might be the way i can participate in a marathon too! Thanks for the idea! Here's to hoping we get unseasonably warm weather in feb :) Happy you're replacing the shoes! Good luck!
What are we thinking??!! We are crazy but its going to be so much fun :)
That sounds like fun! Good luck!
That sounds fun! I'm going to check out your partners blog....
My half is in Feb but in Austin, where we usually roll about 45-65 degrees. So you are a crazy woman, but I like it. Glad you can return the shoes. Mine came from a chain store *blush* so I can't even if I wanted to - and it's weird, mine FEEL weird but nothing is HURTING my feet, so that's a bonus.
Nothing like throwing down the bloggy gauntlet by posting about the relay! I think I have figured out how rearrange my weekend so I can participate, but I have to "convince" ADP first.
Glad they're taking the shoes back. The relay sounds awesome!
That will be AWESOME. I love the thought of running blog buddies racing together.
FUN! I've wanted to do a relay! You'll have to keep us posted
That sounds fun! Cold, but fun!
Sounds like fun... We have a similar race here in Ottawa called the winterman.
Sounds like a fun race. I went to school in Buffalo and those winters are tough.
Ooh, sounds like fun! Congrats on the relay! Now you can be more focused in your training now that you have a race to prepare for.
