Our coach Barbara has us using this run-walk method: we run 4 minutes, speedwalk one. It's gotten me to eight miles, and I'm hoping to do TEN tomorrow! It's pretty cool: http://www.jeffgalloway.com/, if you're interested.
My team is pretty cool, too: we have about 25 people, if I had to estimate. It's strange being one of the "old" ones (like everyone else I know, they all ask me if I knew I look younger than I am :), but the girls--mostly, since it's the Nike women's marathon--are nice and supportive.
Oh, and Ben and I are hoping to make a vacation of sorts out of San Francisco! We've never been there, so we're both up for lots of suggestions (please comment).
