Yes, I am insane. I am now officially registered to run in the Chicago Marathon, October 22, 2006. I`m doing it because I want to, because I have never been a good runner and I`ve always wanted to overcome that. Also, what a great way to learn discipline! There`s another reason too...but I can`t go public with it just yet.
I can`t even run a mile at this point (ha!), but I started pre-pre-training this past week and am proud to say I`ve been very disciplined so far. I`m feeling a great deal of exhiliration mixed with anxiety and fear, but I do not plan on quitting. So I`m taking it a day at a time, trying to make reasonable goals for myself, and rejoice in accomplishing them one by one. Eventually that will get me to the finish line on October 22.
I`m not aiming for fast time, but a fun time running through the streets of a city I love. Don`t anybody let me give up now, you here?!

hello cousin! it's heather. sooo if you are going to be training for this marathon, that means that you are going to have to be eating healthy and whatnot.. and since we are going to be "roomates" i think we should do this together. sooo.. marathon training and a marriage.. that's close enough right?
love you cousin and i hope you are well!
