September was a busy month. We moved to a rented house and in between switching gyms, fixing up the apartments and the new house, I didn’t have as much time for training as I wanted. I’ve been slacking on a lot (as evidenced by how often I’ve been updating the blog).
But NOW. Now is the time to start taking the training seriously. 14 weeks are left until the 1/2 marathon. That may seem like a lot but it really doesn’t seem like it to me. I’m so excited for this race!!! I hope I do well!
The races I have scheduled for this fall are also pretty exciting. I’m doing a 5K on October 17th to benefit “Make a Wish” in Marietta Square. A few of my coworkers are also doing this race so that will be extra fun.
The second race for the fall is The Marine Corp Marathon 10K. I’m double excited about this because it’s in Washington D.C. and I get to spend the weekend with my parents and Grandma Sweeney!
The last race I have so far is on November 15th. A 10K starting and ending at Turner Field in downtown Atlanta. It is the 2009 CVS/Pharmacy Strong Legs Run benefiting Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
Everytime I do a race I get so excited about running and training so I’m thinking doing a few races (I hope to sign up for a few more) this fall will keep my momentum going until it’s time for the 1/2 marathon!
