My dream as far as running is concerned is to run the Marine Corps Marathon. I was fortunate enough to get chosen in their lottery this year, but earlier this week I made the choice to defer to 2021 and run the 2020 virtually. I had already decided that if the MCM was cancelled, I would train to run from my house in Monterey Park (suburb of L.A.) to my daughter’s in Long Beach using the bike path along the L. A. River. Not sure what the exact mileage is, but it is at least 22 miles. Now, I will still do that but make sure I make it 26.2 and make that my MCM virtual. Keeping my fingers crossed for 2021!

I am planning to do the Marine Corps Half Marathon at Camp Lejeune in September. So far,it hasn’t been cancelled. It might be a good train up for the MCM.
