Day 3

Wow, in the last 3 days I have run 9 miles. Good Lord, I don't think I've run 9 miles in my life before. Now that I have a proper stretching routine before I run, I actually feel really good tonight.

Day One & Two

3 miles each day. Not too shabby... I'm averaging about 15 minutes a mile. Which would be good, but I am running from zombies.

I've been really stressed at work the past week. I must say there is something cathartic about running. All I focus on is my breathing, speed, distance... it is kind of nice to tune the world out for a bit.

Pretty sore hip flexors - must do more stretching. Pretty nervous for Saturday, my first 6 mile run. I'm just going to keep at this and see where it takes me. The PF Chang 1/2 marathon is coming up in January. Pete and I are going to sign up. We should be ready by then. (FYI: Ready means I won't die.)

The Start

Well, I always said the only reason to run is if zombies were chasing you, or there was an amazing sale. Consider us chased by zombies...

I admire people who set a fitness goal, follow through, and achieve it. Running a marathon is a goal Pete and I have set for ourselves. This blog will help be our motivation for following through. Accountability if you will.

Wish us luck and pray the zombies don't catch us.
