Are any of you folks planning to give the Lincoln Marathon a shot this year?
I love the Lincoln Marathon. I have never run it, but The Missus has. Most of the people look like they're having such fun. Maybe you think that's a rosy interpretation of things, but I don't think so. Most people really seem genuinely happy to be running a marathon or half-marathon, and they're downright ecstatic to finish. Sure, the average runner swears a few times, but if you're twisted enough to try a marathon, you probably think swearing and grunting are just part of the experience.
If you are planning to run in this year's marathon, I hope you've started training. May shows up sooner than you think.
I can't wait to see Robbie's reaction to all the runners. I bet he'll think it's hilarious that all these crazy adults go streaming down the street for an hour.

See what your friends and neighbors have to say about this.
Go for it, Mr. Wilson. I’ve run the half the past two years. The first year I did it, I had only run a half dozen times - never more than five miles - in preparation, yet the crowd and the fun of it kept me running the whole way.
Last year wasn’t as pleasant with the rain. A lot of the trail ends up underwater, and my feet got all waterlogged and started cracking by the 9th mile. So it’s definitely worth investing in some waterproof socks.
It’s a lot of fun, especially if the weather is nice, because then there are people out on the whole route to cheer you on. It makes the time fly by.
