Let's see how long this lasts

I spend enough freaking time on Facebook that I should just start my own blog. I wonder if anyone will be interested in my life?? I run, I swim, I need to start biking. My goal is to attempt to qualify for the Boston marathon in May. I need to run an 8:20 pace for 26.2 miles!! GAH!!!! My PR is a 3:52. 12 minutes may not sound like a lot, but it's 30 seconds faster PER mile! I have a great coach though that will help me get ready.

If I don't BQ (Boston Qualify) I think I can at least PR (personal record).

I'm not a fan of racing. I like to run for fun and I LOVE pacing! However, if I'm going to pace, I need to prove to my group I am more than capable of running the pace I'm helping them run!

On my quest to Boston, I am trying to get to race weight. I would like to lose 10lbs by May. I'm trying hard, however, it's not working, if nothing, it's going the WRONG way! I'm trying not to be upset though I'm fit and healthy. But losing 10lbs will be 10lbs less that I have to try and move forward in May while racing.

I guess this is where I decided maybe it would help to start to blog. I can't say it will be very exciting, but maybe it will be my little place to bitch and moan about things. I can't make any promises!
