52 days

to go.  That's it.  I counted today and November 12 is in 52 days.  My stomach churns a little (a lot).  The elevation profile scares me the most....I mean a flat marathon is one thing....just running running running along on nice flat and level ground.  Rimrock is mean and gnarly with 10 miles uphill right away (2000 feet of gain), then another mile of uphill at mile 12.  Elevation profile of Rimrock marathon
Preparing for this is hard since I have never run a marathon nor have I ever even considered running 11 miles uphill.....why would anyone want to?  Why do I want to?
