So, to feel like I knew exactly what I was getting myself into, I went to the book store to read up on other crazy folks who have done the same thing. I found two books that I went home with. The first is called The Non-Runner's Marathon Guide For Woman (Get off your butt and on with your training) by Dawn Dais. I'm starting with this one as I train myself to a comfortable run of 3 miles. She's hilarious and it's a really fun read, all the while I'm reading how she got herself from the sofa to the marathon. Second book I purchased was The Non-Runner's Marathon Trainer by David Whitsett, Forrest Dolgener and Tanjala Mabon Kole.. This book received high ratings on Amazon, so I'm going with it. It's a training manual where I can take notes and it's pretty down and dirty on everything I need to know. I'm excited to get into it.
Right now I'm reading about what I need to get started...which is new sneakers...woo hooo!!
