WOW! Last week I signed up for a MARATHON, yes a marathon. This is very scary for me! I have run THREE half marathons and I have always dreamed of running a FULL marathon at least one time in my life! Next semester, my last semester at WCU, I thought would be the perfect time. Once I enter the real world, I will be nonstop busy and I feel like I wouldn't have as much time to dedicate to running.
I will be running the Pittsburgh Marathon on May 6th 2012, one week before I graduate from college! :) I have heard that the Pittsburgh Marathon has a lot of hills and I am not a fan of hills! So why did I choose the Pittsburgh Marathon? Well my dad is from Pittsburgh and has a lot of family in Pittsburgh. My dads cousin's wife Niki ran it last year, and I was going to do it except I had class that day. So this year she is doing it again and I think it is even more fun to have people who are running in a race that you know! Hopefully I will be able to keep up with her! :)
I have been running off and on lately, but I have actually started training. I want to find the perfect training schedule for me!!!! I hope to plan it out in the next week and start officially training the week after Thanksgiving. In my schedule I want to add a half marathon half way through my training and I am thinking of doing the Washington D.C. Rock and Roll Half Marathon. They are having a special deal on 11/11/11 (this friday) where you would get $20.00 off if you sign up for ANY Rock and Roll Half Marathon.
It is on March 17th, 2012! I believe that is a perfect point to run a half marathon! :) I hope I can get some of my friends to run it with me because I think it would be a good time!
Life UPDATE...
This week has been super relaxing! I only have classes Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. AND all three of my nutrition classes were cancelled on Tuesday because my Professors had a conference, and TODAY my wednesday night class was cancelled because its his 40th birthday. My Wednesday night class is Love and Marriage. I really enjoy it, but I am not a fan of the time. It is from 7pm to 10pm. At 10pm I like to be in my room, in my pj's, getting ready for bed! So I am a happy camper.
I am currently babysitting my sweet little cousin Bea who is upstairs napping. It is her FIRST birthday! :)
Happy First Birthday Bea! :)
I hope everyone has a super awesome Wednesday!!! I will try and update once every other day. Life gets crazy though so I cant make any promises!
