It's Been A While

Hey, y'all!  It's been a little while since I've blogged.  Sorry!  First things first, several people have asked about the training program I'm using.  You can find that program here.  I really like it because it literally starts you from the couch...no running at all.  It's a 24 week program, so if you start it this week you'll be able to run a half marathon when I do in December!  Do it!

So yeah, 24 week program.  24 weeks til race day.  If I was ever going to slack off I should have already done it.  It's way too late now!  I'm so excited.  And can we please talk about accountability??  Thanks to blogging, facebook, twitter, and word of mouth I don't go anywhere that I'm not asked how my training is going.  I was out after a wedding Saturday and saw a friend I hadn't seen in a good long while.  The first thing he said to me was, "So I hear you're running a half marathon!"  I love that!

Training is going well.  I'm up to three miles now.  WOW...I know that's not much but I never thought I'd say that!  Supposed to up it to 4 this week.  Wish me luck!  Let me just say, I LOVE summer time.  Even in Memphis.  Love the sun, love the heat, love summer.  But it is really hard to get used to running in this heat!  It's a good thing I'm building up to it!

I promise not to wait so long before I blog again.  Talk to you soon!
