Happy Birthday to Me
October 9, 2015. That’s the first last day of my 20′s. It is amazing how a number can cause such animosity; I’m not old enough to be 29! But alas, it is so.
My 20′s have been great. I earned my bachelor’s degree and my masters, bought a house, finished a project car, bought a brand new car, became a runner, completed a half marathon, began my dream job, adopted a dog, started traveling and married the love of my life. With so many accomplishments and monumental moments, of course I don’t want to say goodbye.
My 28th year was a whirlwind. I was planning a massive wedding and had almost every weekend booked with events. I started doing Yoga but also ran much less. That being said, I have decided to get back on the bandwagon and go out of my 20′s with a BANG. It’s time for me to get back in shape and get back to my half marathon trainings (full marathons are out of the question). So, I figured, why not do 29 races in my 29th year? When you break it down, it’s really only 2-3 races a month. TOTALLY DOABLE.
Don’t get me wrong, I am going to try my best to rope in all my friends and family to run with me. Harassment overload. But, if I end up running alone that’s fine too. After all, it’s my 29th year, I need to make it memorable. Lace up, let’s do this.
