So I finally did it, I registered for Capital City. The looming price hike definitely gave me the kick in the pants I needed to stop being such a chicken sh*t about signing up. Training has been going well, although admittedly this week has been hard, I feel like I just can't catch up on my sleep after our exhausting trip to Minnesooota last weekend. I already came up short on one of my runs this week and yesterday I had 800's on deck but it rained and rained so I bagged it. Today is another day of rain, rain, rain, and I'm thinking that maybe the running gods aren't conspiring against me for once, but are telling me to just skip it already and focus on my long run this weekend. I'll be endeavoring to go 12 miles, my longest run to date since the return to running began. I'm excited to venture beyond the 10 mile mark again and with five weeks until the race I think it's it's time I got over myself and started getting excited about finally running this race! Third times a charm right?

Hooray for you! So glad you bit the bullet. I know you are going to rock it.
Way to pull the trigger! The triumphant comeback tour continues. If your return to shorter races is any indication, you're going to kill this one.
I wouldn't worry about it at all. With the way you're obliterating things lately, chances are you'll never even have to throttle back to a lower gear. Now go out there and show Lansing who's boss.
I need to do 12 miles this weekend too.. my race is in 3 weeks! Eek!
Woman, I rode a bike 100 miles in the rain! LOL.........
You, my dear, are my running inspiration. Half marathon training starts Monday.
You go gurl!
