I registered and paid the registration fee for the half marathon. Woo! I'm excited... and nervous that I've gotten myself into something I won't actually be able to handle.
It was raining yesterday so C and I skipped our training. Otherwise, we've been doing really well. Last weekend we did 5 miles and this weekend we'll be doing 6 (as always, running as far as we can and then walking). I look forward to the long ones so that I can convince myself that I will be able to do this.
C hasn't felt secure enough to register yet. She might tonight but now I'll be going with or without her.

I'm down to under 500 unread posts! 421 as we speak...
I've gone "blog-rupt" on some blogs that I don't often comment on or newer ones I was just starting to read but the ones I am the most involved with, I just can't mark all posts as read. I'll skim and skip commenting as I have to and eventually get all caught up.

I really like all the weekly blog events I see everywhere, like "Perfect Moment Monday" and "Wordless Wednesday" etc., but I know myself well enough to not join in. I'd never keep up with it. A few weeks ago though I was sitting at a stop-light (yes, I was driving) and I noticed the most beautiful sky full of clouds I've ever seen. I'm happy I had enough time at the light to take a picture.
It really doesn't do the scene justice but it was amazing. Just sitting there looking at the sky made me happy to be alive.

ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you're in a happy place. I'm in such awe of the half-marathon. I could never, ever do that. Or, perhaps more accurately, I would never do that. Good for you for signing up!
