Half Marathon

In talking to a few friends via Facebook, I've decided to run a half marathon in November. I even posted my intentions on Facebook because I know that in doing so, people will ask me about it and in turn, that will keep me motivated to complete the race. I am going to start training on August 15th which is perfect because school will have started and my birthday weekend will be over. I am also going to join a gym so that I can run on a treadmill while it's hot outside. I used to run before I got pregnant and turned more to walking during my pregnancy. I don't think I could run very far right now.

My sister is an avid runner and it will be helpful to have her advise and encouragement. Also, having the two girlfriends at work will keep us all on top of things. To be honest, I am mostly doing this because I said I would/could never do it and also to aid in the getting the body back as previously mentioned in another post.

So, keep asking me how my training is going. Keep asking me. Even if I ignore it, keep asking.

I will become a runner again. I will run that half marathon.  I will show Emma that you really can do anything.

(I will be sore the next day)
