Just after Christmas while eating lunch at Ruby's Inn with Colleen and her family I jokingly suggested to Drew that we run the half marathon from Bryce Canyon to Cannonville together. Of course Drew thought it was a great idea while I was mostly joking.
So now here I am waiting for my clothes to dry so I can go running with a friend this morning. That's right, I'm training for a half marathon! I figured it would be easier to be motivated if I had a friend to help push me cuz sometimes when Drew is the motivator I get kinda cranky towards him. It works for both of us this way.
I will probably keep a journal on the side bar of how I'm doing for those interested. I know it's not the most exciting thing to read about but I need all the motivation I can get. I ran a mile each day this week to prepare myself for this morning with the intention of starting with a mile and each day going a bit further. It's harder than I thought it would be. I kept expecting it to get easier. I'll let you know how I do today.
