And now I run...

I have decided to resurrect this blog in order to chronicle my new adventure, a marathon. It's something that I have wanted to do for awhile, but due to laziness, haven't. I have plenty of excuses not to, everyone does, so I decided there was no reason not to do it now. I will be registering for the Utah Valley Marathon being held on June 9th, 2012.

I began my training on December 5th, 2011, and have been running for a half an hour three times a week. Depending on whether or not I am running outdoors or on a treadmill, I am hovering around 3 miles a run.

My personal trainer/big sister is helping me with a training regimen. I am doing interval runs, where I run for an amount of time and then walk for an amount of time. This is currently up to a 9 minute run and a one minute walk. So far so good.
