This blog was started as a way of keeping myself motivated to keep working out, and the blog has been successful in that aspect. I started running in 2007, and it really has transformed my life. I have discovered so many inspiring individuals through the "blog world" and many delicious recipes. I use this blog to keep track of my training and write about the fun things in life. Keep checking back to read about my training for my first marathon, in February 2011.
Official chip time: 4:18:03 (avg 9:51) SWEET!!! I surprised even myself! Although now I'm walking like this (living on a 3rd floor without an elevator totally sucks right now:
I also want to congratulate my very good friend Caitlin for her first marathon finish and Ryan for his 8th! And better yet, Caitlin ran her first marathon the day before having to defend her candidacy (GOOD LUCK TOMORROW CAITLIN! I know you will rock it just like you rocked the marathon today!). I will put up pictures from the race including all of our group photos tomorrow, because I don't feel like digging my camera out of my bag. I just stole the picture above from Katy's blog. hehe.
Thank you all for your support! I'm going to continue icing my knees while bumming on the couch and watching a movie, if I don't pass out.
