Ok, here's the deal....
A high school classmate who constantly tells me I (yes, me?) am her inspiration in beginning a running program....just completed a 1/2 marathon. Which is 13.1 miles, right?
I am amazed......
I have only done one 5K and two 4 mile runs. I started this jog/run thing about 3 years ago.
I need to step it up.
I am considering registering for a 5K in a few weeks, which is 3.1 miles. Easy, peasy....
Then, I am considering registering for a 10K in September, which is 6.2 miles. I can do math, yay me!! *smile* *wink*
And just today have been thinking....thinking...notice how I left out "considering registering" for the Des Moines 1/2 marathon!?!?!
What do y'all think??? (Never get Y'all out of my head since my friend says it all the time!!!!) Love it.
I am on the fence........Shouldn't I just "DO IT!?!?!?"
I am tired of the little voice in my head saying "I can't do that....." :)
Printed out the 1/2 mary training schedule.....that's a start isn't it?
In all seriousness, please shoot me an email at kdcole0696@hotmail.com or reply to this post with your thoughts.......Pretty please......:)
This running journey is about so much more than running, getting into shape and losing weight...I am learing a lot about myself. :) That makes me happy.

Do. It. :)
easy for Sarah to say! *Smile* I say go for it! I don't think I am ready but you could be!
Beth, I am so not ready.......but I figure by committing to the races it will force me to continue training and have to be ready?
