How did all start?

January 1st 2011, we were on our way to the temple when we started a discussion on being fit. One lead on to another and I said 'How nice it will be to run a marathon? ' One lead on to another and by 2 pm my son walks into a Nike store and got me a pair of running shoes!!!Now I am really stuck. All my life I have been telling my children about aiming high, look for the stars, setting goals which are seemingly impossible etc...
It is time, at 47 years, I have to say that I will do it
So I did - Save be GOD!!!!!
We came home, I googled - to look for an idiots guide to running marathon. Finally landed up in the California International Marathon Page (http://www.runcim.org/) Went into my calendar and marked December 4th, 2011 - for running the Sacramento Marathon.
Watched a movie and went to sleep...

Am I still there?

It is the end of 4 weeks - since the decision was made to try this out. I am glad that I am still there. But I am also scared to see that I have not made a great deal of progress.
I went to the kick off meeting for the American Heart Association heartwalk on the 30 of April. The exercise physiologists were excellent and gave us some good guidelines. I finished 4th in the 1 mile trial run!!! Not that I have achieved something. But felt good that I did!

So I am still there!
