Okay , so I have this crazy friend named Nicole who talked me into training for the half marathon. Somewhere in a part of my brain, in a part of time, it sounded like a good idea. Who was I fooling? Have you guys ever seen Nicole? She has a runner's body. I have... well, a more fluffy body. So anyway, I let her talk me into joining Katyfit. I go a couple of weeks ahead of time and buy the shoes... $128 later at Luke's Locker I have some shiney aqua Asics. In my mind, I was going to train at the gym all summer leading up to the pace finder on July 5th. Best laid plans, right? Fast forward to morning of the pace finder. I wake up at the crack of dawn and drive down to TH park. All the way to the park I am thinking to myself...
what if I am the last one finished, what if I am the slowest one, what if everyone laughs at me? So I get to the park, sign up and find Nicole who giggles at me because I have my make up done and hair nicely brushed in a cute ponytail. I have so much anxiety that my legs are shaking. I won't bore you with the details, but I was not the last one finished and I didn't hear roars of laughter. 1.5 miles down only 12 more to go! I think I can do it and I have Katyfit to help me get there. Not to mention Nicole who says she's got my back!
