I had enough time to reapply the deodorant before racing off to see Matty play softball. He's on a Monday night men's league through our church. So I got to gab with the girls in the stand, while he got his game on.

I was never good at softball. I played one season. It was a great effort on my part (in my opinion). They put me in the outfield behind first base (I always got confused if it was right or left field), because I was the only one willing to run after the ball. Matty & 2 other friends of ours, Tom & Andrew, used to make me do batting practice before the game. Poor guys tried to help as much as they could, but it really was hopeless.

Did you play, or do you currently play, competitive sports?

I need to flipping register for a half...just to have the date in my mind of when I need to be "trained" by. I keep talking about it!

I'm considering running the Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon in October. It's start time is 10:30PM! Crazy.


Have you ever run a night race?

If I wuss out, there's the Women's Running Magazine Half Marathon in November.



I still think this Everest Challenge looks super fun! But I missed the boat on it.

So today starts my official half marathon training. Although, the plan is only 10 weeks...so I'm not sure if that makes sense to start it now?

Any opinions on that??

Today is the "easy run"...it calls for 4 miles at a 10:30 pace. It seems slow to me...but I guess that's why it's called the "easy run".
