One Year Running aka GO ME!
It is officially been one year since I start running! ::throws confetti::
I have learned a lot about myself during the passed year and I will account it to my new passion with running. I ran 300+ miles in 2009 and I am hoping to double that mileage this year! I probably won't be running any marathons this year, but I do want to get at least one half marathon out of the way.
Goals for 2010:
-- Run a 26:00 (or less!) 5K
-- Run a half marathon
-- Log more than 500 miles this year
Only 3 goals but they are lofty ones. I am sure it will be another wild ride.
I have also started a new novel to commemorate my one year anniversary. They say "Write what you know." Well, I know running so I am working on a lighthearted fiction about running. I just started today and I must say I am excited! If you would have told me last year that running would be my life, I would have laughed at you.
So here is to another great year!
"So I've been busting my hump at the gym. I think it may be the death of me, but hey, I'm seeing that as a positive thing. My body has been in varying states of pain over the last two weeks. If pain is weakness leaving the body, then I'm about to be one helluva bad ass." -Jan 2009
"I keep having this reoccurring nightmare that I show up at the race and have (BUM BUM BUM) forgotten my hair tie. In my dream this is absolutely the end of the world and my mass of blonde hair just hangs there mocking me and my foolish legs. Last night I had a dream that they ran out of water at all the aid stations and were handing out tacos." - April 2009
"Updates are that I am now officially a runner. I finished my marathon." - April 2009
