Does it matter? No. I know that. It doesn't bother me, much. But I suppose it has to be done. Something has to be said... even if it is just screaming at the wind.
Actually the headline writer is the idiot that misinterpreted what Natalie said.
This is the actual quote: "Running a marathon is a lot like getting ready for childbirth (though less painful, I think). You really have to get your mind in the game as well as your body."
Jon said exactly what I was going to say - there's pain, and then there's childbirth pain. And anyone who would claim marathon pain is less than childbirth pain....had too many drugs to help pop that baby out - LOL!
Hm... I have an X AND a Y chromosome. How much less specific can I get?
Not much. I started blogging leading up to my first attempted marathon in 2005 and haven't stopped. Since then the topic of the running blog has strayed around the idea of running and chronicled my journey through training for my second attempted and first completed marathon in 2006. In 2007 I opted to be a dad rather than a marathoner, and now I am typing a profile into blogger. That pretty much catches you up with what you need to be caught up on.
