I did what? When? Huh?

So yeah … I’m not sure what to say right now.

First off, at today’s Monument Avenue 10k expo, I met this guy:

Bart Yasso of Runner's World

And then I posted weird messages on Twitter about signing up for something. A couple of hours later, I took this photo of myself:

Baltimore Marathon

And eventually I admitted on Twitter and to my Facebook friends what I had done: I signed up for the Baltimore Marathon in October.

Oh yeah, I also picked up my race number and information for tomorrow’s Monument Avenue 10k. Let’s focus on that first, right?

Congrats! Marathons are addicting. I want to tell people I signed up for one today, too, but I'm pretty sure they'd think it was a joke.

Very cool productive Friday….meeting with Yasso must have been pretty cool. How did that happen? Reading his book now and looks like he'll be in Pittsburgh when I'm there in May. Congrats on the marathon! Looking forward to hearing about the training and experience

Wow!! Love that you met Bart Yasso!! I saw on their FB feed that they were going to be there. I must admit that I've never done a big enough race to go to an expo, always little community races for me!! Congrats on signing up for the marathon too!! Good stuff for you this year!!

Very cool on meeting Bart Yasso, and SUPER COOL on signing up for your next marathon!!

Speaking of Bart Yasso… he was in town last August when I ran my first half marathon. He did the announcing on race day, and was at the bib pickup signing his book. The only thing was, I was still relatively new to the whole running scene, and I had no idea who he was. Supposedly he's going to be back this year, so I'll definitely take advantage of that!
