Welcome!  Please ignore the dri-fit clothes and the wicking socks piled in the tub. Oops – and don’t trip over the running shoes by the door….and just push the stacks of Runner’s World off the chair before you sit.  Just make yourself at home

Trying to tidy up here a smidge. A new version of WordPress, a check for new plugins, and an article on social media and running all worked together to prompt me to spiffy up here a little bit. I’ve poked my toe in the Twitter waters now – and have linked it to this blog.  (See the Twitter feed over on the side….on the right….no, the other right….). Also – if you’re checking this out on a mobile device…I hope the new plugin works well and it looks cool.

So we’ve had a few more visitors thanks to me becoming a twit, a tweet, a twitterer? Anyway -if you’ve dropped by for the first time – Welcome!  My blog is about running (duh) and my training for my first 1/2 marathon (the Disney 1/2 on Jan 7, 2012). Previously – never ran before.  In fact – you can check it all out if you start at the beginning. I promise this blog contains inspiration (heck – if an overweight 40-something year old mom can take up running – who isn’t inspired by that?), discussions of my workouts (aren’t you glad sweat is not transferable over the internet!), and even some humor (accidental and purposeful).

So get comfy and stick around….you might find something you like…
