I started running in 2007 as a way to get in shape after college. Back then, I never in a million years imagined that I’d run 3 miles, much less become addicted to distance running.
Now I have 7 half-marathons, 3 Gate River Runs, a 10k, the MS Mud Run, a 6k, the Tour de Pain, & multiple 5ks under my belt. Crazy how life works out sometimes.
Here’s the races I’ve done since starting this blog:
- 2011 Evergreen Pumpkin Run
- 2011 Native Sun Mandarin 10k
- 2011 Subaru Distance Classic Half-Marathon
- 2011 Jacksonville Bank Half-Marathon
- 2012 Gate River Run
- 2012 Krispy Kreme Challenge 5k
- 2012 Hale & Hearty 7k
How did you get the motivation to start running? I really want to “become a runner”, but I feel like I don’t ever have the time to go out and run.
Jane,
I got motivated to start running when I graduated college. I used the Couch to 5k program & I love it! Great program to become a runner!
Great! I have used that a couple of times and I really like it too.
