13.1

So this year I have once again decided to run.  And I plan to run more than I have any other year.  Over the past few years I have been getting more and more into running.  I never used to be any good at running more than some short distances, but it seems like something has changed and now I'm able to run a lot longer and better than I ever could in the past.

So last year while I was probably in the best shape I have been since high school.  I started having crazy thoughts about running longer and longer distances.  I started thinking that someday it would feel great to be able to say that I had run a marathon (not that I was going to rush into that).  Then for some reason, I said to myself... "A half marathon wouldn't be that bad?!?!".

So now I'm trying to decide if this is the year I am going to sign up to run a half marathon.  13.1 miles...
I think this might be the motivation that I need to keep running and keep myself in shape.  Like most people I have a very easy time getting out of shape and a hard time getting motivated to get into shape.  But if I sign up to run a half marathon... I will have a goal that I can't really back out of...
