First off, thanks for sending the play list suggestions - Awesome and I have running music for miles now! :) At some point I'll compile all the song suggestions I got into a master list so you will also be able to check them out.
I made it through my first week of training! YAY!
Today was a little tougher because I read on-line this morning that if you're training for a marathon inside on a treadmill that you should increase the incline to 1 as it's a little closer to the exertion of running outside. I definitely felt the difference, but no matter - I got through it - huffing and puffing but I did it.
Training for this thing is really empowering. What has always held me back is thinking that I can't. I truly believe that this marathon is going to really do a lot for me. If I can do this, then I can do anything!
NO MORE FEAR OF FAILURE FOR ME!
I have two goals for this training to lose 15 pounds by race day and run 13.1 miles.
Have a lovely Sunday, see you tomorrow. xo

Congrats on week 1!
thanks! I'm feeling this!
Way to go Jen!!! One week down is a huge accomplishment. I truly enjoy watching your progress and am thinking that I should start training too. I think I'll focus on a 5k thouhg, don't think a 1/2 marathon is in the near future for me. Maybe when I get a bit closer to goal.
that's great Angie! I'm still 30 pounds from goal.... if you doc says you are good enough shape, I say pick a 5k and start training now! You can do it!
