    It's not entirely new, as I run regularly, but my husband and I are going to do a Get Lucky 7K on March 16. We haven't run this event before, and it's actually been awhile since I've run something other than a half marathon, so I'm looking forward to the energy of a race without so much crazy training beforehand! I'm also rewarding myself for every 5lbs lost, so today I will be getting a manicure as I've hit the 5lb mark since my last official weigh-in, and I anticipate also buying a new workout outfit and getting another mani+pedi before the month ends if I make my goals!

    My husband and I just started taking up Argentine tango again. We're hoping to add it to our weekly dance routine (which is mostly modern, ballet, and bellydance).

    Also, since I didn't meet my goal in Feb, if I do this month, I will still treat myself to a massage.

    I'm going to start back with my C25k training. There is a fundraiser race at the school of nursing that I graduated from that I'd like to participate in on 4/6, and then the school's alumni race is 4/20. I'd also going to try and start doing more weights and strength based activities. I am ok with cardio but want to be building muscle too and I like the good burn I feel in the days after a good session.

    I am training for a half marathon on April 7 so that training will be most of my fitness in March!
    3/1 started this morning with a quick 3 mile run :)

    3/2 did my "long" run for the week - 8 miles in under 1hour 20 minutes - YEAH!
    3/3 3 mile recovery run at a good pace - just under 10 minute mile. :)

    Hope everyone is off to a good start.
