It's official folks! NOVEMBER 15, 2009!! I've registered for the Rock and Roll 1/2 marathon! That's 13.1 MILES to be exact! YIKES! I am so excited and nervous at the same time. I've never been a long distance runner, so this is all new for me! I have been running 4 miles 3 times a week with Lexie in the jogger stroller, and Nicole and I do our long runs on Saturday mornings. We are scheduled for 7 miles this week! AAHH! We'll see if I die or not...ahhahahah! It's been really great running with a friend, because we talk A LOT, and the time seems to go by pretty quickly. We've got our time down to a 9:25 mile (right nicole??)--I'm sure I'm slowing her down! My legs are about half the length of hers! LOL! Anyway, Nicole reserved us a room downtown so we don't have to deal with parking and all the craziness that Matt and I dealt with last year. We are just going to get up, and have a warm up walk to the start line! Matt and Ryan are going down with us for moral support, and of course to snap pics of us! hehe ;) Matt really wanted to run the 1/2 marathon again this year, but his knee is really giving him problems. He didn't want to chance ruining it more! Thanks honey for letting me do this!! I can't wait!!
ps--I'm LOVING the results of my runs--all my pregnancy weight is gone, and my pants fit! YAY!
