Marathons battle it out...

I have a huge dilemma.
HUGE.

Okay, I'm dramatic.

But, I need help. See, there are 2 marathons I could run in the fall (did I mention training starts July 30?! eep!!!) And I can't decide which to do!

So, being the OCD psycho I am, I made a list....

SAVANNAH ROCK 'N' ROLL MARATHON

Nov. 5th

vs.

THUNDER ROAD MARATHON

3. Good excuse for vacation

4. Beautiful scenery
