So I got to thinking one day that it would be cool to run a marathon in my life time. So I looked into a few races and sure enough the "Two City" race being held here in Fresno is benefiting the
Leukemia/ Lymphoma society.
Well I saw that and I said to myself that I have to do that race in memory of my cousin

So I have been running since July 29th and I couldn't feel any better.
It's amazing what running can do for you and your body. Not just physically but mentally as well.
So I got me a pair of new kicks and an iPod and off I went.

I also purchased a Nike + iPod
Its a sensor that goes in my shoe and a wireless adapter that plugs into my iPod Nano and they talk to each other. It tracks everything for me and then catalogs it online.
I LOVE IT!!

I have really learned a lot about myself and running in this last month.
1. I really like, I mean LOVE running
2. Once I get a really bad side ache, it doesn't go away
3. My right calf is stronger than my left because of driving
4. Running helps loose the lbs FAST
5. Music is the only thing that helps me last, or else I get a little board
6. I enjoy the feeling after I'm done with a good run
7. I have to stretch before I run
Well wish me luck. I am only running the half marathon but it is on
Nov 8th
You want to come meet me at the finish line to cheer me to the end.
