Twisted Sideways

So I have decided to begin training for a half-marathon! It’s the baby steps to the big one for sure. So I plan to start small, work my way to the 5K and then up from there. I am doing this with my good friend Jen for a few reasons. The biggest, being my ass. I know I need to lose a few pounds and I figured that I could get started now rather than waiting until the new year to start those resolutions. This nine to five job has kept me at work and in a chair much longer than I would care to be and by the time I get home each day, working out or getting any kind of excerize has been the last thing on my mind.

In college I used to run quite a bit around my neighberhood in Hyde Park. But that was when I had all the time in the world and more time than I knew what to do with.

So tonight we begin. Tonight it’s about the baby steps. It’s about holding each other accountable to make this happen. To many miles to come.
