Alright internet when I make this post active… I guess I am kinda held to the punch. One of my bucket list goals has been to run a half marathon. I keep saying I am going to do it, maybe when it gets warmer, next year, I don’t have time, etc. Underneath I have kinda doubted if I will be able to…. and since I have never ran over a 10K I really have no idea if I will even be able too.
It is a goal for 2011 so why not go ahead and go for it….. I might fail but I will never know until I try. So the big race is March 20th in Atlanta and my official training starts tomorrow! Last week I met with a bride, and she did the Disney half marathon this weekend. She had never done a half marathon before but her Mom, that was 48, had done a ton and continue to do so. So I thought okay I CAN do this. I came home that night and signed up, I wasn’t going to put this on my blog… because well as soon as I do I am kinda held accountable…. I have to do it, I have to go for it, and I can’t quit.
Here is my 10 week training schedule and well it I can hardly even look at it like this. I get overwhelmed. I am just going to take it one day at a time. If you have ran a half or full marathon feel free to leave me any advice. Today I am going to try to prep my iPod with motivating music. Maybe, just maybe, this music will help me get through this. I created another sub-category on my blog titled “Goals”. It is already January 10th… 10 days of 2011 have already gone by. I am not getting any younger this sub-category goals will be where I document my goals. If I reach them, and if I don’t what I have learned.
Here goes nothing!
P.S. It snowed last night and we have like 6 inches of snow!!! We never get snow in Georgia and this is now twice!!! Roman and I both have colds but maybe we can figure out a way to bundle up and enjoy this white fluffy stuff!
