Ok, I know. This may sound a little nuts but I have to do it. I need to set concrete goals for myself or I slide down the slippery slope of bad eating and no exercise. I will NOT go back to those size twelves, even tens! I will have a flat (fairly) stomach in 2010. I will feel energized and not need to rely on caffeine to get me through the day. I will be toned and love shopping and getting dressed in the morning again.
How will I do all of this? By running. I miss running. But I need goals to keep myself doing it. I haven't run more than 3 miles since the Turkey Trot and I feel awful about it. Not guilty but literally awful. Flabby, tired, unhappy... nothing like I felt when running.
So what am I going to do about it? I will run a half marathon in May.

Yup. There. I said it. I am signing up for the Hyannis Cape Cod Half-Marathon on May 30th. 13.1 miles. In a row. At a time.
The ten week training will commence in exactly 5 weeks. Until then, I will keep myself fit enough and maybe strength train a bit, while maintaining running at least 30 minutes at a time, a few times a week. I know I can do this. I will try and log it here and hopefully see myself go from jogger to runner. Either way, I feel great when I do it- so it is win-win. Anyone want to join me?

Do I WANT to? YES. Have I even been able to stop ordering burritos for lunch? NOPE. Let's watch as we move your weight to me...you shrink, I'll grow..
I do. Really. I was going to see if you'd like to run a 10K with me this Spring. But what's a few extra miles?
