Starting all over

Starting training for this half marathon is the hardest thing ever. Went to the gym for the first time in like 3 years. I couldn't even last 30 minutes on the elliptical. 12 minutes was the max. But if I remember that is one of the hardest equipment to get down. Now I hope I can get all the training I need to run this race. Thank goodness it's going to be warm tomorrow to run outside. With having my foot problem running on a treadmill hurts to much. So I went out and bought warm running clothes. Since I live in CO you never know what the weather will be like.

So I did my first 3 mile run since October. I thought I was running slow, but I ran 3.02 miles in 29 minutes. I don't think my body knows how to run slow.

So now I have to get my training schedule down. My good friend is going to help with that. I can't wait. Keep up the training and take one day at the time

Back on the wagon

I'm so excited, I got the approval from my doctor to start training for my half marathon. It's been the hardest thing ever for me not to run. It's my stress release and my me time. You need me time when you have 4 kids and a husband to take care. So Monday is the first day of my training. Will see if spazo can handle a 3 mile run. It will sure wear her out.

It's nice that I can take Malia with me too. She is excited to start cross country next year. I have a little one who will follow in my foot steps. The journey begins Monday. Woohoo
