Training

Recently I have been training for a 1/2 marathon. I figure I better work my way up to a full-blown marathon! The best I've done is an Olympic Triathlon (1 mile swim, 25 mile bike, 6 mile run) It was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life up to this point, but awesome. If I were to feel prepared, I would love to eventually ro a marathon. Anyways,  I'm working on getting both mentally and physically strong. Yoga has actually really helped me with that. I feel so much more able to just run and run and run, when my mind is confident that I can do it. Wish me luck, I havn't topped 10 miles yet. As soon as mid-terms are over, I will be able to put forth more effort with training....I'm also loving this weather, which is allowing for some non-treadmill running. Fresh air is soooo much better than a nasty machine at the gym!!
