getting started.

i totally admired and liked sarah's running blog and thus have decided to start my own. i'm not sure what format i'll use yet, but i'm sure i'll work that out along the way. i have a variety of big races that i have committed to this year already: june 7th in chicago - a half marathon, august in chicago - a half marathon, october in chicago - the full 26.2, and in november in san antonio - a half. along with a few 5ks thrown in for fun. i have already done the disney princess half in march, the indy mini marathon in may, the race to wrigley in april, and probably a couple others. in any case, i'll document those numbers/times and the upcoming races as well so that i can track my progress. the first marathon i did wasn't pretty, but i did it! this year, i need improvement. and lots of it! i am hoping this blog will hold me accountable for everything i need to do in order to meet those goals!
