Well here goes nothing

Hi everyone! This is my first post, on my first blog ever. Aghhhh. Hopefully you all will find me entertaining and helpful, if not then not sure what to tell ya.

To start this blog many people ask me... "How did you get into running?" To answer that I have to be fair and give the husband a shout out. Yes, I have always run in high school and college but never long distance. When I met him, I told him I had always wanted to run a full marathon. Man should I have kept my mouth shut! He surprised me for christmas and signed me up for the San Diego Marathon. At the time, I was shocked and convinced I couldn't do it. But with a little training, who are we kidding a ton of training, I completed my first one in June 2010. And since then I have continued to train and run marathons. So I guess the husband deserves a thank you for starting this crazy addiction. Running is an addiction and once you start you will want to keep going. All you have to do is sign up for a race and let the craving for more begin.

Check out the Marathon calendar  It is a great place to research races, read reviews, and find one that fits your needs. We like to travel to our races, why not see the world while running. Seems like a good excuse to me.
