New focus= half marathon
So since I have come to realize that I will never be happy or proud about how my body looks, that maybe I can be proud of something my body can do. I have decided I’m gonna run a half marathon in the beginning of October. I am soooo excited! Jetman5500 was so nice and wrote me up a really solid training plan and today was my first day 
.
Today was CT so I did…
