Really, I am training for the Canyonlands Half Marathon with my friend Kim and maybe our mutual friend Leisha. I am so excited & scared to death. I have never run a half marathon, but I guess there is a first time for pretty much everything. This run will be in March 2010 down in Moab. I think it will be awesome. The course is apparently a rolling course so I am going to attack the many "rolling" benches here in the valley.
.
I think this is going to be one of those deep reflective kind of runs for me. At least the training is putting me in that place right now. Today is day two of running for me and of course I hate it during the run, but oh it feels so good at the end. I have another session for tonight.
David asked me if I wanted him to run with me. I told him no. This is one thing I need to do without him. I want him to support me a different way. He's way too busy anyway, with all of his camping he does every month. I really want to just see him at the finishline. I want to just run into his arms, knowing that I accomplished something, that I really would not have without putting my own effort into it. His support is always there. That is just one of his qualities I have fallen in love with. I am blessed because of him.

So the rest of you, send me your prayers and words encouragement to help keep me motivated...goodness knows I need it. You can leave em' here on my blog or email them. Either way, I would really appreciate it.
