The Zion Half

I cannot believe that we are going to do this. I am already starting to get nervous. it starts at 7 am. when the heck do you eat?? 4 am? It's in Utah, I live in Pa. what about the altitude and how do I combat that? I am doing research for answers to these questions and will not allow myself to have doubts or fears. I need to do this in 4 hours, that is my main goal. We are working towards increasing our distance and improving distance bit by bit. Taking it slow we have time, this is in March. Exactly one month before my 60th birthday. Going to look for a running group on spark that may be able to help.

The Zion Half Marathon

So, yes, we are doing this. On March 22, 2014. Exactly one month before my 60th birthday I will be walking/running in this. 13.1 miles. My sister, and daughter and some of her friends are doing this with us. What a way to celebrate. Also, will be finishing up my course with ACE to be certified right about that same time. Have got my work cut out for me the next few months. I keep thinking my goals, three big ones..build the business, get certified as CPT and ready to run this half marathon. How to fit it all in, has me thinking and rethinking. I need to schedule time and think I may need to find some more hours in my day. Today was a good day, got some studying in, ran/walked 2 miles today after doing 7.44 yesterday at the Rails to Trails. Cheri and I loved that.
