I started running 7 years ago to help kick my smoking habit, well I don't smoke and I'm an avid runner.  I've ran a couple of half marathons, ten milers, 5k's and of course 2 mile runs but now it's time to step it up to the full marathon. 

I'm in the military until the end of the year then off to school in New Jersey, I'm really excited about it.  I first have to finish this deployment.
