The idea came early on this year, when I realised that my birthday would fall on a Sunday. Seeing that normally marathons are taking place on the last day of the week, I did not have to think twice, but looked up possible races that I could run to celebrate my anniversary. It cannot help it, but I am a pretty superstitious. I mean I am turning 25 years, hence entering my 26th year of age, so it almost be rude not to run 26 miles on that given day.
