The next 1/2 marathon on the horizon...
Well, I am officially into this running thing now. I remember being on the soccer team in high school and having to do conditioning and hating every second of it. I always thought of my friends who ran track and cross country and thought they were crazy for loving running. But now I can see what they saw in it. If you have something to train for, then it makes it so much more bearable and even a little addicting! With that said, I have completed a 5 mile run and 10K run since doing my half marathon in Phoenix and plan on running the San Francisco Nike Women's Half Marathon in October 2006. I am currently mentoring a new set of marathoners with Team in Training as they train for the San Diego Rock n Roll and Alaska Midnight Sun Marathons. I am running more and more instead of walking and my foot hasn't given me any problems (yeah!). I will officially start training and fundraising again for the Nike 1/2 in May. I am excited to be part of such a great organization. Team In Training has been such a great experience for me and I look forward to staying involved with it! Go Team!
