I AM A RUNNER

So I started running (well, conditioning) back in May of 2011.  I was feeling like a lazy slug, coming home from work and flopping onto my couch with a bag of potato chips to watch QVC.  I needed to make a change.  So I decided to email my local running group and I showed up at 6 a.m. the next day.  It was a decision that changed my life (cliche, I know, but true) -- since then I have gone from barely being able to run a lap around a track to completing my second 5k.  I've come to enjoy running so much that I thought I'd blog about my experiences to document my improvement, as I intend to eventually (hopefully!) run a marathon.  Hooray!  

A bit about me --
  • Name: Katherine
  • Age: 27
  • Health: good, a touch of arthritis in right knee, what a pain
  • PRs: 5k, 35:56 (1/1/12)
  • Location: VA
  • Shoes: Asics GEL-Nimbus 13 (<3)

Stay tuned for race reports, training recaps, and product reviews, I love buying new running gear.
