So I kinda forgot I had this thing...

not like I've been running in the past 6.5 weeks since my last post.

Funny how we get so motivated, then easily fall right back into our old habits. Try as I might, the same old reasons (excuses) kept popping up...

Somewhere there needs to be a change, and while I sometimes think I'm ready for said change, my recent attempts have been futile.

Unfortunate news, I am NOT running the half marathon in December. I couldn't afford the fee at the time, and by the time i was able to afford it, the race was sold out. So on the encouragement of my mother, I'm thinking of attempting the FULL marathon next year. That gives me roughly 14 months to train for it.

We'll see if i actually can.

I did run yesterday for the first time in 2 months. Did better than I expected, 7/9 run cycles. I ran at 8:20am and I had TONS of energy throughout the day. First time that has happened. And no calf issues this time either. Got some great advice from my pharmacist (who is also a crazy biker) and it really helped out!

The plan today was to run with my roommate and a friend today, but both are still asleep. I'm hoping we'll be out running in the next hour or so. *sigh* I was up at 8am, due to Mr. Stompy upstairs. I hope they move out soon. I am pretty sore though, so we'll see what happens.

I have also started Zumba... which is so addicting!!! AH! I'm currently doing a Saturday class, but I am being promoted in a few weeks and hope to take a few more classes after my schedule changes. Mon-Fri 8-4? Yes, please.

So here we go again. My new goal? To post something other than my serious lack of commitment and motivation. :-P
