April 20th is the day I decided to start training for a ½ marathon. Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of
advertisements about the 1st Hokie Half Marathon (and 5K) coming up in September and decided I need to push myself a bit. My fiancé, Kevin, and I are getting married in October and typically along with wedding planning is wanting to get in shape (hello pictures!).

My favorite part is the ½ is a few weeks prior to the wedding and it’ll give me more opportunities to de-stress! However, someone did tell me this is either the best decision I’ve made or the worst, so I guess we’ll find out!
So about my background of athleticism:

| Register! |
I played sports including t-ball, softball, lacrosse and field hockey from elementary school to my last year of high school. Once I left for college, playing sports was out of the question (too much of a commitment!). It crossed my mind having an intramural women’s lacrosse league at VT but there weren’t enough fields for that to happen.
Since then I’ve been working out on a very irregular basis. Now you know my background and reasons for signing up. This is the first post of the series I’ll be writing until the Hokie Half Marathon! Hopefully the next one on the schedule will be the Disney Princess Half Marathon!!!
