Running Maddness

I am basically finished with the Ragnar training program that I started a while ago even though the race is not until February. I started early because I wanted to make sure I could actually handle something like the Ragnar way before the week of the actual race, plus it gave me structure to my workouts and something to stick to - that I like. But I found myself this past week worried about what I should do next. After the 10k and how well it went I thought it was time to go on to the next challenge: A Half Marathon. The PF Changs Marathon/Half Marathon is in January, so a month before the Ragnar Relay. I have been hemming and hawing over tackling this for the past couple of months, I have even gone as far as to tell people I will probably do it. Here's the problem with probably its not gonna kick my butt out of bed at 3:30 in the morning to run. Paying $124 to run a half marathon? I think so. So that's what I did. I stopped being wishy-washing about this and paid the money, it was hard because it was a lot of money, but that's the point right? No turning back now (its non-refundable). I am actually excited about this. Something to get myself through the holidays. I even selected MEDIUM for my shirt size, I can't remember the last time I wore a size medium of anything (literally cannot remember). So I'm gonna keep on trucking with my running (and working because these race entries fees are expensive) and one day wake up a Runner!
