Four more days. Four more days and then all this training, running and stress will be put behind me. The past six months have been a crazy roller-costar when it comes to my training and I have to say, it has been very rewarding to me. I never expected to ever get passed four miles and to be able to get all the way to ten is such an amazing feeling. Most people my age don’t like to do much of anything when it comes to exercise and if it weren’t for the influence of my father then I would have never gotten into this sport. 

Of course I am one of those people who were very fortunate with the way I grew up. I was always able to play soccer, I had access to horseback riding, I did some water sports like skiing and wakeboarding. So I have been athletic most of my life. I may not be very good when it comes to my ability to do most things but I still enjoy the exercise. 

I am very happy that I have this chance to run these thirteen miles at my age. I feel like I am finally accomplishing something for myself and my setting this standard and by pushing myself I feel like I can show the world that you can literally do anything as long as you want it bad enough. 

So yes my followers, the race is soon and once it’s over I will be releasing a few different things to talk about this race itself. I want to share what happened, what it was like, the challenges I faced and a few other things with you guys. Wish my luck at the race and I will see you all at the finish line!
