So I got to thinking about my last blog and meeting new people...I should've put something in there about finding a running group in your area. I feel that one of the best aspects of running is meeting new people and the relationships that develop on a run. It is amazing what you end up talking about after 3 hours of running...leave it up to the imagination! Anyways, if you are going to be running the marathon or half marathon it may be a good idea to find a group. I find that I get excited to go running with my friends and look forward to meeting them for the next challenge. I trained for my first marathon completely alone, and although it was quite the accomplishment, those long runs got lonely sometimes. Some of you may like to join a group once or twice a month, while others may enjoy it several times a week.
If I weren't directing the race this year, I would be tempted to run the relay. It would be a blast to train together and do some races pre-relay with a team. The school I teach at currently has two teams getting ready for this race, and I love to hear about their plans.
As you can see by the recent pictures posted, I love to run with my husband and my friends! I have met so many amazing people through running.
