I AM A HORRIBLE BLOGGER

Wow I NEVER update this thing! I've realized facebook is the only social networking I am able to keep up with and I pretty much have abandoned twitter, tumblr, and well, now this blog.. However I really would like to force myself to be a little more attentive.

I will admit I went through a bit of a hiatus with running, and I'm not sure if this is a good excuse or not, but it was 100% because of the weather. I started getting cold and I just wasn't into it. But the good news is, I joined a gym and have been running regularly. I can run about 3 miles at this point. While I am proud of my accomplishment, it pales in comparison with the 26 miles I am going to have to run in less than a year. I know I still have plenty of time (9-ish months) ...but damn. 26 miles is alot. But I knew that getting into this whole thing. duh.

In other athletic-ish news, I am doing the "Hustle up the Hancock" the last week in February and hopefully a 5K in March, followed by the Soldier Field 10 in May. These events are pretty pricey (which I didn't really realize until now) so I will hopefully do the Chicago Half Marathon and then call it a day before the full marathon.
