BIG Plans

I'm not sure why I think this is a good idea but I'm going for it anyway-

Next May I'm going to run the Ogden Half Marathon!

I am really excited and can't wait to start training even though I have to cook and deliver a kid first. :) The reason that I want to run this is so that once I have baby Nestman I will be motivated to get right back into shape afterward. I want to be able to get back to the same fitness level and also be able to still enjoy the things that I love even though our lives will have changed quite a bit.

I ran the Moab Other Half Marathon in 2009 with my sister and really enjoyed it. It was hard work but definitely paid off and I felt so good afterwards. I am hoping for the same results this time.

RJ and I have kind of made a joke of it because the last one I ran I told him what I thought my time would be and told him to be there at that time. Well, good for me, bad for him- I finished a lot faster than I thought and he was still parking the car when I finished. I did give him much crap for this, but I realize really whose fault it was. :)

He keeps telling me I have to do another one so that he can camp out for all 2 hours and make sure he's there at the finish line this time.  

So here is myself officially saying that next May I'm going to run again :D

The Other Half Moab Marathon in 2009- First thing in the morning!

Finally finishing!
