Utah Valley 1/2 Marathon Update

A few months ago I had decided with my entry partners to change to the 10K instead of running the 1/2.  We just don't have the time or haven't taken it to train.  Because we had decided this, I hadn't been running much AT ALL.  However, my brother, who did the actual registering, forgot to go online and change the race.  AND we forgot to remind him to do this.  By the time he got online to do it, the deadline for changes had passed.

So, in a week and a half I will be running in my first 1/2 Marathon. Alone. I have been ditched by my surgery recovering Mother and my Brother is just leaving the state.  (I think he's hiding from the race we didn't train for.) ALONE. For this very long distance I have never attempted.  

My goal:  to finish the race before they start taking the blockades down.  Even if I have to CRAWL across the finish line, I'm going to do it.

Joys Of Running

I ran today. 

I got up off my fat butt, got the kiddies in the stroller, and RAN.

It felt really good to get out and do it.

Good, if bouncing boobs, slapping thighs, and a very jiggly tire around my midsection were what I was going for. 

Although I now have raw skin all over, I will be going out again. 

The more I do it, the less noise and rubbing. Right?
