RUNNING, Isn't my thing!

Training for Half Marathon

But when I do it I feel this rush of power through my veins. The beauty of accomplishing something that is both physically and mentally challenging. It was a feeling of endurance and awakening! My longest race was during Seattle 2013 Seafair, an 8K packed with so much emotions, something I thought I couldn't really do. 

So you might ask, why run a half marathon? Well I think we should always challenge ourselves, to use our bodies to its fullest capacities while we can and to keep our minds engaged and focused. This summer I started meeting a personal trainer where we worked on strength training, I felt like I was using parts of my body that I haven't used in my life and it felt great! I also got into Zumba where I felt free and can fully expressed ME! 

Lately, I have been stuck in funk - I stopped being physically active. I really want to go back to my routine and keep at it. I think setting a goal to run a half marathon will help me get there. I will be starting this training Dec 1st and I'm currently in the process of finding a race to sign up for, somewhere in Pacific Northwest. 

Join me with journey as I find myself back to healthy lifestyle. Talk to y'all soon!
