Something new and random...

I won't pretend that anyone will ever read this, and if they do, that they'll ever care. So, I'll start with doing this for me. For my health. For my sanity. For the sake of accountability.  We'll start here...

















I am a 26 year old Stay At Home Mom, wife, full time student (Psychology), dog owner, yoga practice-er (sometimes), and beginning runner. Last year, I suffered a first metatarsal fracture, and didn't think running would ever be a legitimate possibility. But in a burst of stubborn and irrational motivation, I went to Inside Track to get fitted for a pair of running shoes. 

About $100 later, this was my first step towards something...Brooks Adrenaline GTS 11




















That day, I went home and registered for my first 5K.  That was February 15th. My race has someone appeared out of nowhere...and I am now down to a measly 3 weeks to train. Since starting, I have run 73 miles, mostly on my treadmill.

TODAY:

~Running: 3 1/2 miles (Technically, walking 1 mile and running 2 1/2 miles.)
~Yoga: 20 minutes
~Bowling: 2 games

My other interests in life...

Bowling...with my pathetically sad, I'll-never-turn-pro, average...




















My dog, Moby...(Boxer/Lab/???)




















Coffee...


 And, of course, my wonderful, supportive, amazingly perfect (most of the time) husband...

Eventually I'll know where I'm going and what I'm doing. For now, I'll settle with knowing how I'll get there...in my running shoes.
