First Rulk (Run + Walk = Rulk!)

Well...here I go. Tomorrow I will be meeting Julie to map out the 3 mile route right behind my house so when I'm pressed for time I have no excuses...(DARN!! LOL!) I'm excited, and still a little nervous.

Good news though! My stepson Matt will be joining me on the half marathon and will be training with us when he is not working. He has a natural ability for running so he'll probably end up leaving me in the dust...but that's okay. (As it should be considering I'm the "mom" and he's the "son"! LOL!) AND my pal and buddy Michelle P. is signing up too! This is TOO fun! I'm so glad to have others who I'm sure will have some aches & pains too...maybe not as much as me, but that's okay! I always remember that there are ALOT of people in ALOT more pain then I could ever be in this entire event.....and that is one of the reasons I KNOW I will perservere!

ANYONE else up for a challenge? We kind of have a team now! There are officially 5 of us!! YEAH! They say if you can walk or run 3 miles, you can do this half marathon!! (There is a 5K too) Trust me, if I can do it, YOU can do it!

I'll be back with more details as I progress! Time to get focused....
