10 weeks of everything I do or don’t eat & drink, every workout I do or don’t skip, every run I put my all into or half ass, every time I make time to stretch or decide to skip it…every little thing goes towards the condition I will be in lining up at the start line in 10 weeks. 

I am so excited!  I’m ready for this, ready for the runs, the non-drinking, lot’s of water, tons of sunblock (given the 80+ weather we are having…in May!), the black toenails, sore legs…all of it, I’m ready! 

I have a 3 week training cycle between 1/2 #1 and #2, and 8 weeks between #2 and #3, so basically my whole summer, every little thing counts! 

Today is a walk, tomorrow is the first run! 

Shout out”s:
-To Jenny who BQ’d at TCM (Tacoma City Marathon) yesterday!
-To Amy for pacing her running partner and helping her BQ! 
-To Josh for running his first race yesterday, 5 mile leg of a marathon relay leg, had a 9:30 ish average pace!  Already see on FB that he’s talking about a 5K next! 
-Angela at Fleet Feet for fitting Josh, Bob, and Michelle for running shoes!  I love being able to recommend the store to friends and they go in and get exactly what they need!
