A year for Running

So... I realize a year has passed since I updated this blog. Not quite a year, but close enough. Always a little crazy how time seems to fly by without me even realizing it. This year I finally got a fire under me to get back into the exercise thing and back to the gym. Didn't want to jinx it this time by documenting thats what I was going to do though. I think I'm past the point of jinxing now though. I'm downright addicted. I signed up for Capitol City Marathon. My roommate and my BF are going to do it too! I'm pretty psyched. Its coming up in approximately 83 days. Wh-hoooo. I've been training since January first, so I've had plenty of time to get my butt into training mode and now its starting to feel closer and closer. I'm only up to 4 miles though. And actually, I say "only" but personally that feels like an accomplisment. I've been running pretty much everyday with 2 rest days. Some days its just 1 mile and some cross training, most it is at least 2 miles plus whatever else I feel up to doing. I finally was able to pump out 4 miles in 40 minutes a couple days ago. SUCCESS! :-) Now I've just got to keep that up so I can do 3 times that amount. yikes!
