My running journey really began in early 2010 when I set out to run my very first half marathon.  With about 8 weeks to prepare, I started running a few times a week and setting out to increase the length of my long run by a mile a week.  Just before the race, the farthest I had ever run was 8 miles (which seemed like a marathon at the time) but I was as ready as I was going to be.  I always seemed to need to walk part of my long runs so I set a conservative goal of trying to run the first 6 miles of the race without walking and would just take it from there.  I shocked myself by feeling great, running all 13.1 miles without stopping, and getting a great first half time of 2:21:37.

The rest is history.  I am amazed by how far I have come yet I am motivated to go further, faster, and be stronger.  Enjoy reading past triumphs and future goals here.
