So here's the first update about my training for marathon weekend.
So I while back I decided to get in shape. Like most of my previous diet and exercise routines, it wasn't going so well. My sister told me about marathon weekend and I decided that I wanted to go. I would really like to run the half marathon, but there's NOOOOOOO way that I can do that by that time. Anyway I figure that a trip to Disney world is enough motivation. I'm overweight so this works out good both ways. I'm going to get to run 5k and get an extra trip to Disney (family fun 5k run [thought I'm not sure why people think running is fun. I guess when you do it for a while then it is..]). If I can't run 5 whole kilometers by then, then I'm not going. Today was my third day of the Couch to 5k program. It doesn't sound hard at first, but it certainly is.
I'm going with my sister. It will be a nice weekend to spend some time with her, I get to miss some school, and get in shape.
It'll all be worth it. That's what I keep saying. I know it sounds cheesy, but It's true. All my hard work I know will pay off. I'm so excited. If you're coming to marathon weekend, then I'll see you there.. well realistically probably not unless we prearranged a designated time and meeting place which we won't do. Sorry. I don't know who's a stalker out there.
