Running!!

So i cant remember why i decided i would run a half marathon but i started training 8 weeks ago and i haven't looked back. I have 10 weeks to go before the big day. I'm totally excited - and scared. Christian is going to run the Raleigh Marathon the week before i make my debut at the Outer Banks Half on Nov 11th!! I could use all the support i can get!! I am so proud of myself and the amount of progress i have made. I went from being a total couch potato to running three times a week. Last week i ran 13 miles total with a long run of 6 miles. 6 miles!!! I never would have thought i could do it. It's great. And a couple of girls from work are running with me which makes those long runs soooo much easier.

So i ran 2 miles tonight and will run 7 miles on Thursday morning (at 5:45 in the morning!!!!) and 5 miles on Sunday. I'll keep you posted.
