Alright, so after many, many months of being a faithful lurker, I've finally gained the courage to start my own journal. To be honest, I'm not really sure if I will have enough to say or anything even remotely interesting but I figure this will help keep me motivated/accountable to continue running even if I'm the only one reading it.
So a little about me in general...My name is Jen and I'm a 34 yr old stay at home momma to two little girls and wife to Isaac. Lylah is 5 and just about to start kindergarten...how is that even possible?! (I was going to add a picture but I don't know how...maybe later)
Sadie is my 3yr old and she gives us a run for our money. I call her my sour patch kid...first she's sour, then she's sweet. Describes her perfectly.
Anyhow, my best friend from college and I decided to sign up for the Princess half even though neither of us were running at all. Ive always wanted to do a half but never actually put in the effort. I ran a little bit in college and into my 20's but never super consistently. It always seemed like it was pretty easy to pick it back up at right about a 10 minute mile no matter how long of a break I had taken. Fast forward a few years and two babies later, and suddenly running isn't coming back so easily. So I thought maybe by creating this journal I could get some advice, encouragement, and accountability along the way as I see if I can actually do this...become a legit runner!
