the squeaky wheel…

So, at my training partner, Kim’s suggestion, I contacted the MORE race peeps and asked to be put on a waiting list for the race. While I didn’t try to sound too sob storyish, I did explain how our current situation had prevented me from registering for the race earlier. Well, much to my surprise, they let me in! So, 1/2 marathon, here I come. While I feel like I’ve come a long way over the past couple of months - from running for a minute to running 3 miles, I am still nowhere near the 13 I would need to run the entire race. Luckily, walking is allowed…

Kim and I did nearly 8 miles on Forbidden Drive this morning. Spring is here and while the trees are still brown, the sky is a gorgeous, invigorating blue. There is just no comparison to running on a trail to running on a treadmill.
