Training begins!

This Saturday was my first day of training for the 1/2. I'm happy. The coaches seem very supportive and non-psycho.  There was one small disappointment.  I ran the first mile.  When I got to a stoplight just after mile one I had to stop and wait for the light to change.  Only about 10 seconds behind me were the walkers.  I run as slow as the walkers walk.  Sigh. Also, after that first mile I died.  Ran out of energy.  I still finished the 3.5 mile course, but I know I need to eat before next week's run.  I was only expecting to do a mile this week, so next week I'll be better prepared.

My nutrition is going well.  Not perfect, but well.

Personal life ok.  I'm feeling a little loner-like with all my friends being pregnant.  I signed up for a couple of meetups, and am hoping to meet some more people like me - single, professional, and kid free.

I'd like to have some followers, so if you've stumbled across my blog and enjoy it, please follow me.
