I’ve been running.
I haven’t been writing much about running, but I’ve been running. I’ve listened to my little garmin chirp as it tracked mile after mile. A delightful little sound.
One of my goals this year is to run two marathons. I signed up for the Chicago marathon that is in October, and I’ve been training for a spring marathon. However, I have been afraid to fully commit and actually register for this spring marathon because I wasn’t sure I’d be able to get in all my training miles with nursing school.
Until today. I finally made it official!
My mind was pretty made up two Fridays ago, though. I crammed my face with carbs the night before and set my alarm to go off way too early for a Friday morning. I knew I’d need extra motivation for my longest run of the training cycle (so far), so I did the only thing I thought truly appropriate…
…switched the bright pink laces, of course!
The marathon is only twenty-five (what?!) days away, and this weekend I am going to attempt my longest training run ever…22 miles.
Please send your positive running vibes to my pretty pink laces!

i signed up for my first half marathon the other day (the philadelphia marathon). Can’t wait to start training and documenting it on my blog.
