September 28, 2011

I love that the marathon is over and I can run for how long I want and as fast as I want and I don't have to worry about it. I have only run a couple of times since the marathon but I am loving it. I have gone between 4 - 4 1/2 miles. I have been trying to do some harder runs. I try and hit three pretty good grades. I have been feeling great! I don't know that I will update as much now the marathon is over but I thought I would write what I was doing now in case I ever want to look back and remember :).

Introduction

I think for most people that will be reading this know my story, but for those of you that don't. Here it is. About a year ago I started running with a friend. I have never been a runner and never wanted to be a runner, but after having my third baby and nearing her first birthday I knew I had to do something or I would start packing on the pounds. When I heard a friend was running I decided I would try it. Another friend had once told me that it seemed like after she worked up to 4 miles she started to see a change in her body. After I ran that first time I decided I wanted to try and run 4 miles with out stopping. I was surprised when I was able to work my self up to 4 miles shortly after starting. Once I was able to run 4, I decide I would ask another friend if she wanted to go running. We start running together and before long with out knowing it I was training for the Top Of Utah Half Marathon. I ran the TOU Half last August and I am hooked. I am determined I have to run a marathon once in my life so I am shooting for the TOU Marathon this September. I started this blog because I want to be able to look back and see what runs I did and how I felt!
