Anyone else wanting to train for the 2012 Princess 1/2 Marathon?
I just learned of this marathon and have read some blogs, and trip reports concerning it. I've never been an athlete or runner, but the things I have read have inspired me. This is honestly the first athletic thing I have ever aspired to do.
I have two obstacles... myself (the self sobatager) and DH (the we don't have the money for that).
Obstacle #2 is taken care of! DH agreed that if I lose weight and get in shape, I can participate in the race! Granted he agreed to it because he doesn't think I will do it, but nonetheless, he agreed. I know that makes him sound unsupportive, but he's not. He is actually the most supportive husband I know. He just knows my history. I know if I make the effort, he will be supportive 110%.
Obstacle #1 - ME! and that's a big obstacle. I am 125 pounds overweight. I have a lot of weight to lose. I know that, and I am ready to do the work.
Is there anyone else out there who is planning to train for the 2012 Disney Princess Half Marathon?
