Marathon Woman!!!

Alright... I won't get carried away just yet. But yesterday was my first day of marathon training. I woke up bright and early and ran 5 miles! Before the wedding, I was running 10-13 miles everyday or two so this isn't much compared to that. But that was a while ago and I've let my running slip. I need to get back in the hang of things.


So, I've decided to run our local Rocket City Marathon this year before Lucas and I start having little kiddos. I just think it would be a fun way to push myself and a cool thing to say I've done. Lucas is going to run the 1/2 Marathon in November with me so we're both beginning our training. Lucas had to leave last minute for Kentucky yesterday but he ran 40 minutes and walked 10 minutes on the hotel treadmill (or so he says he did).

I'm starting another blog - mostly for myself - just to log my runs and total miles and to make sure I stay committed to this process. You are more than welcome to stop by anytime and give me some words of encouragement. I'll surely need it!

And so it begins....
