where me and running fit together

Last week things began to finally settle down. We have had a pretty normal week this week but otherwise, nothing too crazy for us. So if my life has been finally slowing down, why on earth am I not blogging?

I cant think of a single.thing.to.write!

Something will pop in my head and than poof I either cant compose the post or it disappears. Its am glad that no one pays me to write, because I would fail them miserably!

My running has been lacking, but I am honestly okay with it. I am trying to reevaluate what I love about running before I commit to 26 miles. Do I love running to just run, do I love the training aspect or seeing my times get better? I am really not sure right now, so I am just running.  I seriously considered signing up for the Nike Women's Full in October. I would love for my first marathon to be a one that is electrifying but I am just not sure I am ready to do a full. I also would be bummed if I didn't get picked when I make it such a big deal!


Yes I did make a goal to run a full this year, but I might just wait until I am fully prepared, fully trained and fully enjoying running. At this moment, I am none of the above and while I think you can train for a full in the amount of time it is to this run, I think that I want to really build up my base more.  So instead of trying to win a spot in this marathon, I am going to run for the next month or so and see how I am feeling. If I can build up my running by June, enjoy doing it, I will reconsider where I want to go with my training.

So that is me, that is where I am at and what I am thinking when it comes to running. Where are you at in your journey? Pin It
