This year’s end-of-the-year goal: Run a half-marathon.
I’ve never really been much of a runner; short sprints are do-able but distance, not so much. A good friend from high school got me in to running last year. It’s great cardio exercise and for the most part, it’s a mental challenge more than physical.
Needless to say, I am still struggling with the daily push; a 5k kicks my butt and my breathing patterns are erratic at best in warmer weather. After talking to a few other runners, I’ve picked up on a few tips, none of which my iPhone apps have been any help at cluing me into!
Oh well, the show must go on! Tighten those laces and let’s run!
