Hello world and Blogspot. I am not new to the blogging world as I had a wedding blog over on Xanga for almost 2 years. I was married on August 2nd and decided to switch the theme from wedding to running. The problem was I found there were more runners over here then on Xanga. My Google Reader is full of running blogs and I never had an account to share my experiences. Now I do. :)
Here is my story. I am a 33 years old elementary school technology specialist living in Las Vegas with her hubby, Roy. We are originally from New Jersey, but met out here 5 years ago. I was never an athlete in HS, in fact I was in the band. I was always around 30 pounds overweight until recently when in 2003, I decided enough was enough and decided to run the Race for the Cure. I couldn't even run 10 minutes back then. I trained (this was before the C25K plan) and was able to run the whole race in I think 38 minutes. Now, I can run 3 miles in just under 30 minutes. I ran my first half marathon on December 7 here in Vegas in 2:21. Not the time I was hoping for, though it was a start. Now, I am in the 3 week count down until my 2nd half marathon in Lake Havasu, AZ on April 4th.
I look forward to meeting you all!
