    Exactly. I've just joined the DFW diet club, so the Marathon would be something to aim towards.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Hurrah for the goody bags!!

    I am up for a marathon challenge for next year. The difficult part is getting a place!

    If I get in though, I will be happy to be part of the DFW/MSE team! Applications are not out until August though, so some time to go.....
