on a mission

well, after months of just talking about it, I have taken the plunge... I'm registered to run a 1/2 marathon on February 15th in Austin, TX. I almost can't believe it, but I am really excited. A friend of mine mentioned it last summer when we were both pregnant and I thought she was crazy. Then my sister signed up and Aaron committed to running the full marathon with a friend. I didn't want to be the lone member of our group sitting on the sidelines come race day. I am loving getting a little me time when I'm on a run and am thrilled to find enjoyment in the open road. Days that I do my run on the treadmill is a different story but for now the weather is allowing me to be in the great outdoors. Only 5 1/2 weeks to go.
