Forward Progress

What a difference a day makes! Welp, I officially have a running group date....this should be interesting and fun. Can I tell you that I'm nervous already? Although I'm familiar with all of the ladies, some more so than others, at least I know my MoCo will be with me, as well as the Jackhammer so at least I won't be completely "alone" aside from physically when they blow past me like the mighty gale force winds they are. LOL anywho....I'm happy and excited that I now have made a step in the right direction...so that even if I don't get my butt up between now and then, I have no choice or be the bum come Saturday (1/29). So now...I need to get up and get into gear so I'm not completely dying on our first group run, maybe it will come back faster....probably even faster if I'd stop eating crap. But that's another story for another day. So yeah. I'm excited. And nervous. But ready to get this show on the road. Not working out makes me feel sluggish...and even if I'm not losing size, I still feel better about myself for pushing further than I thought I could. Better than sitting on the couch.

In other news, I read this blog on BGR today that had me in tears....I could totally relate to what she was saying as she wrote about her first half marathon experience. I haven't run one, but I understood the feelings. That was a big push for me to get moving on this thing. I want to reach my goals. I want to run at least 5 races this year, one of them being a half marathon. I hope this group connects and we can run a few of the races MoCo and I plan to tackle together....I'm really looking at the Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta for the 1/2 marathon goal. 4th of July weekend...why not? then I can load up on BBQ with the family and not feel one iota bad. ;-)

hmmmm....let me get to next weekend first....
