I am sorry you haven't heard much from me this week. Along with all of my motherly duties I have been physically and mentally preparing to complete a wonderful journey tomorrow. For the last eight weeks I have been training with an amazing group of women for the Salt Lake City half marathon. This is my second half, but this time I am so ready run the race!!!
If you would have asked me a year or two ago if I could run 13.1 miles I would have laughed in your face! I would have told you I could barely run around the block. I started running to get in shape and hopefully get my sugars under control. I was struggling. I was registered for this race and wanted to complete my race feeling good in my body. I knew I couldn't do it alone.... That is when I met my trainer Angela. She is awesome!!!! With her support and the support of all the runners (whom I will introduce you to when I post the race) I am so excited to run tomorrow.
My goal is not to break any records, maybe not even beat the time of my last race, but to cross the finish line. I am stronger and healthier then ever. I am an athlete!
Derek has not been training with us, but he has been training and will run too!
Can't wait to cross that finish line!
Good Luck Lisa! I will be thinking about you tomorrow. You'll do great....kick Derek's butt.
