Do you remember how I posted last week about 8 things. One of my 8 things to do before I die was to run a marathon. Well I just registered to run a half marathon (13+ miles) in Orlando with Brandi.
Did I mention I loathe running? and I'm totally out of shape? And will be over 35 when the marathon happens? But I figure if I don't do this now (Jan 09) then the I probably never will.
I think I'm just as excited to meet Brandi as I am about the marathon. The last time I ran a mile I puked.
So Bring on the puke buckets and play me some Rocky. I start training tomorrow.

I have a friend who just ran the 1/2 marathon in January in Orlando. She had never done anything like that before. Started training about 8 months before it and she did it. I was so proud of her.
It inspired me to start the couch to 5K program. It has been great.
You can do it. Go for it.

i can't believe you! That is pretty intense my friend! but you can totally do it. you have a year to train and a wonderful gym membership (and workout partner) to get ready. GOOD LUCK
I'M RUNNING THE HALF IN ORLANDO TOO!!!! Just signed up today! I did it Jan 06. It was a blast. You will def. be able to do it! And will love it.
Way to go Steffany, Way to go!!
Imagine that as a little chant/song as your feet hit the pavement each time.
You can do it!!
WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We'll all be right here on the computer screen cheering you on!!!!
YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am impressed. I don't know if I would be able to do it. I bet, however, that you will feel incredible and will love being in such great shape. I hate running too. Our cousin Shane did it though--he loved it and shed 40 unwanted pounds in the process. You don't have any room to shed. You better get some high calorie good for you food! :)
Go, Steffany, go!! :0)
I wish I lived closer to Orlando... I'd much rather run a half-marathon WITH good friends than alone!
I LOVE checking things off the "life-goals" list. There is NOTHING more satisfying!

Go girl! I believe in you! You're gonna love it!
