Half Marathon and Triathlon

Okay so I did it. I'm signed up, paid my freaking $60 to run the Ogden Half Marathon in May of 2010. That is crazy. I hate running. I'm better at running than biking and swimming but I still hate running. I said I will never run a 1/2 and somehow I am doing it. It is because Chari made me sign up. I just can't say no. But I told her that she has to do a triathlon with me. I'm going to train for the triathlon and somehow run also a half Marathon.. Let me be clear to everyone. I will hate it and I will NEVER do a full marathon.
So if any of you are out there want to join. COme on. It will be great.

I really hope that I don't ruin this 30 almost 31 year old body. I love it right now. I like running my 2 miles and lifting weights and it works for me. I'm in great shape and I feel good. If I run this thing and ruin this great body and knees There will be HELL to pay. I'm just saying it now.

I just registered for it too! Chari reminded me about it. For some reason I didn't think it opened up until a lot later.

I think Robin Walker is thinking about it to. She and I ran it together in 08.

You'll be fine-don't worry. If I can do it pregnant, you can do it anytime! I'm with you though, don't have any desire whatsoever to run a full.
