Let's do it!!

I will absolutely blog with you. haha, that sounds kind of funny... Anyway, I have a new burst of energy just thinking about signing up for the race! What a blessing it is to be able to run- everytime I'm running, I am so thankful for the opportunity! And it is even more amazing to run with my bestest friend, Mel! Mel and I ran a half marathon last year together (my first and she had already done a full before that) it was a great race. We were able to encourage eachother throughout the entire race- Mel was stronger in the beginning and I was stronger at the end. It was perfect! We even sang songs and learned a new phrase from some fellow runners along the way "big hills, small butts!" :) Not that we care- we're BB's Quarters! (it's a Russia thing....) But every race I did after that on my own, I had Mel's encouraging words going through my head and kept on going because of her! I am so excited to start training for a full marathon! There's nobody else in the world I would rather do it with than Mel! Even though we are millions of miles away, it works for us to train "together." Can't wait to get started!
