bucket list

so one of the things that i have always wanted to do but felt so unattainable was a half marathon.  just the thought of running for longer than..well a few miles or 30 minutes made me cringe.  then i started thinking.. why not?  i have been active my whole life, worked out consistently and why not?  cue training in january while i am thinking.. maybe i can't do this, maybe i'm just not cut out for it.  i talked to a few that had done them and they said "they're not that bad", "if you can run 3 you can run 13" and "once you run it you will think it was a breeze".  not sure about yall but i was still unsure. i love running but maybe just not that many miles, ha.  but persistence won out and i continued to run and do those long runs on saturdays and this past weekend i did 9.0!  wow, didn't even know that i was capable of that!  long story short that i will spare you, i am now officially registered for my first half!  i am so excited about running but not only that, it is in Nashville.  i'll get to see some of my fav peeps AND get the Nashville experience!  Here goes nothing!
