One week to go until White Rock!

Next Sunday I will run the rock in the Dallas White Rock half-marathon. I am so excited about my first long distance race!!!


In other news....
It became abundantly clear to me yesterday, while attending and presenting at a conference for my graduate course on Bibliography and Research, how much running a marathon and the lessons learned while training for a marathon apply to other aspects of life.

For example: A dissertation is a marathon. It takes dilligence, hard work, perserverance, and tenacity. From where you start, it seems unattainable.

But you discover that it is not.
