Since I have decide to complete a half marathon some time in my 39th year, this was a great place to start. I will update you with my progress as I go along.

8/24/10 I walked three miles around my neighborhood, it took me about one hour. I am going to research the Galloway method for running and start to follow that, I believe I have been told it is part running and part walking. I will keep you posted. Thanks for sticking with me!

9/13/10 I JOGGED 1.5 miles this evening around my neighborhood. I jogged to the beginning of the neighborhood and back towards my house and I included one cul-de-sac. I was feeling good by the time i got to the cul-de-sac and didn’t want to wear myself out completely. I am very excited that I was able to jog the entire route without stopping except to check that my pedometer was working. Those of you who know me, know I am not a runner, but I now have a goal to complete a half marathon and along with my new found discovery of my strengths, I am not going to back down from my own challenge. The big challenge now, will be to find a MUCH better sports bra because the girls are not happy with me at the moment. They will just have to suck it up and deal. I JOGGED!!!

I had a slight set back that week, if you read my post on my accident, I really wasn’t up for anything more physical than getting up and getting out of bed, which was fine for me. On to the next week.

9/20/10 I was up early and decided to go for a run. I ran just at 1.5 miles! I ran the length of my neighborhood and I added an extra cul-de-sac
