It time to stop being a homer and get a 1/2 marathon under my belt. My hip is feeling a little better now and so I am going to start training for the Seattle 1/2 Marathon on Monday. I was going to do a race down in Utah, but that race is in September. I really think 2 months is WAY to soon for me to push a 1/2 marathon especially with how long it took my hip to heal from running some 8 milers. So the Seattle marathon it is! Anyone want to train with me? I found a good training schedule online that is a 12 week program. I will be adding another 4 weeks onto the schedule so I do not hurt my hip again and I get off some of this unwanted pounds again.
Check out the schedule:

In the schedule they want to you to run a 5k and 10k so I plan on doing that too. Time for some goal setting.
Anyone want to come join me up in Seattle to run this race. I do still plan on running a race in spring down in Utah for sure. :)

Sounds like fun. I am still trying to run a few time every week. I printed out that running schedule. I am going to try it. So by the end of sept we should be ready for the race.....:)
You go, girl! I just got my Runner's World mag for this month and it had a whole section on a half marathon challenge. It was pretty cool. Get on their site and check it out! They also had training schedules and stuff. Good luck!
