how far away is October 9 in weeks?
I signed up for the Long Beach Half Marathon.
I just clicked the "pay now" button, and I am already having second thoughts.
13.1 miles is almost twice a long as that crazy Bay to Breakers... and there will be no wacky costumes or naked runners to distract me from my pain.
13.1 miles... that is pretty darn close to half as long as some of those marathons some of you people run... the ones that are 26.2 miles anyway ;-)
Even though the summer can seem UNENDING when you have 4 kids at home, I know that fall will be here before you know it... and I will need to have gotten some serious running miles under my belt to take this one on.
Always my inspiration, Miss C is still training. That girl always seems to be able to fit her workout in... here she is doing intervals...

I need to devise a training program ... I wonder if she has some ideas for me?
I know that this time I will be doing some cross-training. I already have incorporated the bike into things... and some dynamic stretching... maybe it's time to hit the pool... bahahahhahaahhahaha!
Oh, and tomorrow I will be showing my "center spread from a popular magazine" as promised on Facebook as a part of finishing in the Top 10 of that AWESOMELY FUN and exciting Circle of Moms contest! So be sure to be on the lookout ;-)

Now, as if it wasn't annoying enough for me to beg you all to vote for me, I am now begging you to vote for my friend, Absolutely Narcissism. Her thing is a one-time vote... none of this over and over again crap... and you can click here to do it. Go check out her site... she is hilarious, and you will see how totally worth it it will be to do this one-time vote for her.
