Big (ish) news! I have decided to run this year's Chicago Marathon. I've been thinking about it a lot lately, so with a little nudge from Renee, I finally committed to the idea. It's a great way to get in shape while raising money for a good cause, and at the end of it all I can say "fuck yeah, world! I'm a marathoner". Honestly, I'm terrified. But I feel better being able to seek advice from my 4-time marathoner roommate.
Now if I can get my eating (and drinking) habits under control, I'll be one bad ass bitch by the time October rolls around.
Sort of a side thought- I feel like if I knew then, what I know about fitness now, I would have been a much better dancer. I was pretty good. But I could have been better.
Ah, I think I've always dreamed of being an all-star athlete... but the truth is, I'm still just that person who got teased in gym class (by the teacher) for running like a girl.
