I don't think I have shared with all of you yet that I am going to run a half marathon the end of October. I have trained for one before 6 years ago, but a few weeks before the race I blew out my knee. I just finished my third week of training and it has been difficult especially last week as I had a bad cold, which cut into my running. People keep asking me why I signed up to do this and the funny thing is that I actually do not enjoy running, but since I just turned 30 and my body has lost firmness I decided that I need to prove to myself that I can do this with also having hopes of getting in really good shape! I bought a really good pair of running shoes and it has made a huge difference in the way my feet feel; for anyone taking up running I highly suggest investing in a really good pair of shoes. I also bought a new ipod that has a Nike running program that syncs with my shoes and it tracks all my running statistics, which is awesome! I will try to keep you all updated with my progress on my running, but I also hope to be able to share some additional weight loss. I am still part of Evolv and continue to have success with the program and am incorporating this running into my overall fitness success.
Once I finish this race my goal is to continue running so that next spring I am ready to do the Fifth Third Riverbank Run.
