Who just got their official acceptance into Marathon Maniacs (MM)? This girl!

Just how did I do it? I ran two marathons within 16 days and earned my way into the club as a Bronze level member: Rock ‘n Roll New Orleans and the 41st Annual Tallahassee Marathon. There are eight more levels of MM to work up to.

• Are you addicted to running marathons?
• Do your thoughts switch to the next scheduled race immediately after finishing a marathon?
• Are you signed up for more than one race right now?
• Do you know specifics about many of the marathons? Dates, courses, years run, etc.?
• Do you know the story of how the marathon got started? Also why the course is 26.2 miles?
• Do you read books on marathons like Marathon and Beyond?
• Is http://www.marathonguide.com book marked on your computer?
• Do you look at the race schedule more than once a week?
• Do you start to feel down when you haven’t run a marathon in a while?
• Are your closets and dressers filled with marathon t-shirts?
• Do you have so many marathon medals that you’ve run out of room on the hook they hang from?
• When asked about your racing from non-running people, do you find yourself talking with great passion to the point that the person that asked the question regrets ever asking?
• Have you run marathons on back to back weekends? Or better yet back to back days?
• Have you run a marathon as a training run? Or just to pace a friend?
• When asked by loved ones what your plans are for the weekend, you feel guilty telling them your running another marathon so you tell them “it’s only a half this weekend”?
• Do you plan all your vacations around a marathon race?
