I started this blog back in January with good intentions of blogging every day about my journey in 2012. As with most things I started out good. My daily happenings, race reports, training, goals, etc. then slowly became monthly race reports. Which by April ended too. I started running more and blogging less. I had trouble adding the photos to the blog since I'm an amateur blogger I'm still in learning mode. I still plan on going back and doing race reports from this year. If nothing else for my own memories.
My original goal was to get 12 pieces of bling in 2012. I didn't suggest 12 half marathons because I had never run more than 6 in a year and was still in awe that I did that not to mention that happened in 2009. I ran one Marathon in 2010. Then after that pretty much quit running. Mainly because it was a goal checked off my list and I was tired of training and running. I was in love and just wanted to be on the couch with my boyfriend. Two years and 30lbs later I got a wake up call at the Wine & Dine Half (in Disney World which started me on the crazy journey that I'm on now. That story may need to be a blog all by itself. Anyway back to the bling (I have ADHD so sorry if I get distracted from my original thought) I knew that I had some Disney 5ks & a warrior dash on my list so I planned on counting that bling in my quest for 12 in 2012.
Here we are in November 2012 I have completed 16 half marathons & one 14.2 miler so I got my bling!! Several 5ks and a 10k along with one Unsuccessful Marathon attempt. (Another story) I'm still finding it hard to believe it all myself. I decided that with 32 races completed this year more than all my previous years combined I should get back to blogging. So I plan to be more consistent in my future :)
Set Goals and Go After Them!! If you shoot for the moon and miss you still land among the stars!!
