I just tallied up my mileage for September and my oh my I ran one hundred and seven point seventeen miles the month of September! 107.17..... Hmmm wow that's a buncha sweat! :). I am really excited about that number! Never ever thought I'd do this runner goal thing!
I've wanted to be a runner since high school I guess. We moved back to Texas to a tiny school and my first friend I made was on the track team so she asked me to join up with her on athletics. ( I'm talking the school was so small all 12 grades on one campus. Everyone had either gym (where they did nothing) or athletics(where u actually got some exercise and I was always trying to lose weight so...). So I asked and they said sure I basically was on the track team but never went to a meet or had an actual event I trained for.... Looking back I'm not exactly sure why not, but I lifted weights and ran/walked with them (slowest one as per all thru school). I just didn't want it bad enuf then is what I'm realizing today.
(Edited to add that the girl who got me to go into athletics quit because she found out she was pregnant! A week after I transferred over lol kinda funny how things work out:)
Tomorrow I set out to run 223 miles with 12 strangers.... Hope that goes ok;) I've trained hard so it should:)
Then I'm off to see my dad:)
It will go amazing! can't wait to hear all about it.
