Here We Go

I've decided to put on my big girl panties and really commit to running. I desperately want to be a real runner. Right now I'm a fake runner. I ran my one, and only, 5k at the end of September and then ran a couple of more times here and there. Then I got busy, it started getting cold, and I got lazy. Then my too big pants turned into my still a little big but not as big pants.

So, here we are. And, here we go.

Marathon Mom and Jill Coyners at Fitness, Health and Happiness have put together 13 in '13 and I've decided to join. Participants run 13 races ,of any distance, throughout the year and log their races. I know, I know, 13 races sounds expensive but they are hosting 6 virtual races for FREE! They are doing fun prizes throughout the year and there is also a Facebook page full of support. I've also found 5 by the 5th, which is a virtual race series where you participate in a 5k or 5 mile run by the 5th of each month, from January to June hosted by Mommy, Run Fast. Oh, and there are also prizes each month for that too!

Here's to 2013, the year of Lyndsey! I think I'll make that the motto of the house for the year, think the hubs and boys will go for it?!
