In 2009, I turned 40 and decided to start running. Not at the same time, but when I decided to start blogging about it, it seemed apropos to talk about my life at midlife since the urge to run is probably my version of a midlife crisis. More importantly, however, I wanted this blog to be about much more than running. So here I am, running, blogging, momming, wife-ing, and living my life. Hope you enjoy following along!

The First "Run"
Per the instructions of my training program, the first run was mostly walking. Yes, I hate running just as much as I remembered, but I did it. I ran/walked 1.75 miles in 25 minutes, so a pace of 14.18 minutes/mile. Not bad for starting out. I'm trying to motivate myself by thinking about how good I will feel a few months from now when I can see how far I've come. How's that for optimism?!
