2013 Review

As some of you can tell I am not the best at keeping up with this whole blog thing.  I went back to school and it has taken up so much time and energy that I just didn't post much in 2013.

This post will be a recap of some of the things I did durning 2013.

The biggest thing that happened to be this running wise is I finally became a Half Fanatic.  I ran 3 half marathons in 55 days.  The original plan was to run them in the summer but I wasn't able to finish one of the races.  I was going to wait to join until this summer because I am not a cold weather runner, but some how my dad talked me into running one in November and that was enough to qualify.


First I ran the Fox valley 1/2 marathon.  It is part of a series.  They have 3 races in one day a half marathon, 20 miler(my dad did this one as his 20miler for the Chicago Marathon) and a Full Marathon.

In October we went to Wisconsin and I ran the 5k with my mom and then did the Half marathon the next morning.  My dad did the full and qualified for the Marathon Maniacs.

Last their was the Valparaiso Half Marathon and it was on the cold side for me.  I am totally fine running in the cold.  However 13.1 miles in the cold wasn't my favorite thing to do.

Now I am officially #5494 and I just need to order some gear.  

Well thats what I did this year besides learning how to build website at school.
