2010 TNT North Shore Group
Welcome to my running blog. I'm currently training to participate in the San Diego Marathon on June 6, 2010 as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training. I am running in honor of my friend, Gina, who was recently dianosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma in early January. This will be my first marathon so I am a bit nervous but excited too. I have been running since 2005 and have completed several 5K's, a half marathon (Walt Disney World 2006) and most recently, a triathlon (Salem, MA 2009). I figured that this was next on my "bucket list" so I am going for it. I hope you will visit my blog often to read about my journey to the San Diego finish line. Buckle up, this promises to be a wild ride!

I hate the dark...


I was just getting used to morning sunlight and being able to log my miles outside before the day started and then Daylight Savings hit. It's been almost a week since we changed the clocks but my body is still in denial. I'm wired at night and can't get myself out of bed in the morning. Today was especially tough, but I dragged myself out of bed at 5:30 and headed to the gym to log my "easy" four miles on the treadmill. One thing's for sure...the treadmill is certainly easier on the knees but not on the mind. I felt like I was running forever and I only did 4 miles!! Not to mention that I think I have my "running" playlist memorized so I can predict exactly what song comes next. I think it's time for some new tunes...suggestions welcome.
