Hi! New here

Hi, all,

I just started training for a half marathon that will take place in late October. I've ran several 5ks but that's about it. A good friend asked me to run a half with her, so, of course, I said I would. I hope to be able to keep the motivation to train because I have a tendency to wimp out at times. I look forward to "chatting" with you all.

    Having someone to run with for you first half is so much fun! I ran with a friend of mine (who has completed full marathons) and she was so encouraging throughout the run.

    But be careful... Half Marathons are addicting! I've ran 7 in the last three years and I'm signed up for 3 more... and I'm considering adding another one to the list! :laugh:
