A few months ago I committed myself to doing something I have never done before....run a half marathon!!  The race is in March and my official training start date was yesterday.  I am following a specific training program to get me ready for the race.  Yesterday I was to do 30 minutes of cross training which is basically anything cardio related that is not running.  So my daughter has gymnastics practice so I utilized the time and did the elliptical while watching her practice. 

Today's workout was 30 minutes of strength training. Because my son has karate tonight, I have no time to workout after work, so I woke up at 4:30 am to get my workout in at home with one of my favorite videos.  I love working out in the morning because I love the peace of the quiet house and I love the feeling of being done with my workout before the day even begins.

I am going to bring you all on this journey with me.  So be prepared for lots of sweaty selfies and posts about my training.  Who knows, maybe I will inspire one of you to do a half marathon as well!!
