Suicide or Exhilarating??


My friend and i decided to set out on an adventure of.......... Running a half marathon!!!! We want to just cross the finish line by either running, walking, crawling!!! We thought this would be beneficial in many ways. So here we go!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone who wants to join us on this adventure please do!! The more the merrier!

I know some of you are worried cause of my heart but i do have approval from the doctor and things to watch for so i do not push to fast to soon! And so far the first few days are feeling great.

Julie and i decided to run the pocatello marathon on Sept 5th to give us ample time to get ready. Here is the link http://www.pocatellomarathon.com/

Also my good friend Cindy and her husband are workout FREAKS!!! :) *i love you two!!* So i called them to get some training tips and they gave me the website http://www.runnersworld.com/ which has been helping me tons!!


Well now that i have told you all i must follow through with it!!! :)

Dan was using the site marathonrookie.com. Of course this was for a marathon....but I'm sure that it will give tons of tips. Also there is one called mapmyrun.com. You can pull up your neighborhood and choose which route you want to take and it will tell you how far it is. Good luck!!! You will need it. It always fascinated me that people want to do this to themselves....even though the first one who ever did it died immediately after. Also, the first time they put the marathon in the olympics.....yep....winner died too. But.....all the luck in the world to you. I will be cheering you until the last crawl :D What an amazing journey!!!
