Hello! :)

So lets see, it has been 6 months since my last post. Yikes. You would think that the amount of time that I spend reading other people's blogs that I would be compelled to write one of my own every once in a while.

Anyway, let me get you up to speed. In February I started training with Team in Training for a marathon in San Diego on June 1, 2008. After 4 months of making great friends, training hard, and surpassing all of my running expectations, I finished my first Marathon on June 1, 2008 in 6 hours, 18 minutes and 48 seconds. I had hoped to complete the run in less time than this, but it will do for now. Well, it has to do for now.

I had a great weekend with my boyfriend, my sister and my brother in San Diego and while I missed certain people significantly (my parents, etc) we had a great weekend.

So, after taking two months off of running, I am happy to be back and training with the Fall 08 team of Team in Training. We are called team Oz and having a great start to our season. After our first Coached Saturday training last Saturday in San Ramon I think everyone is excited to get moving.

I am a little slow in getting set up with a donations page, but I will post it as soon as I have it.

Also... I am running the following events this fall:

San Jose Rock n Roll Half Marathon
Nike Women's Half Marathon
San Antonio Full Marathon

And I am excited to get more races under my belt. :)

Alrighty, that is going to be the end to this blog as I have to get back to what I was working on. Thanks! :)
