I've Lost My Marbles!

I knew that it has been coming for a long time now, but I just thought it would have come on a little more gradual. Not full blow insanity in a matter of minutes.

It all started last summer. My friend Jodi tried to convince me to run with her in a best friend’s half marathon. Back then I was still sane enough to laugh at her and tell her she could forget it. Yesterday morning I was checking my e-mails. I received an e-mail from Jodi and there was the notice that the registration for the Best Friends half Marathon was coming up. I’m not sure what happened, but at that moment I blacked out. Before I knew I had responded “Let’s do it” and had hit the send key.

After regaining my wits about me I spent a moment or two hyperventilating and then decided that this was going to be great. I am sometimes the kind of person who needs to be motivated to accomplish something. I have been wanting to start running again and there is nothing like a pending ½ marathon in your future to motivate a girl to get moving.

So I need all of your help. I figure if I tell everyone that I am going to do this, I will be even that much more motivated to accomplish this.

Wish me luck!!!!! Oh and if you see me lying on the side of the road-call 911.

Thanks Jodi I owe you one.
