Just Say Yes!

Okay, I don't have a lot of time to make this blog too fancy...I mean, I'm already trying to figure out when I'm going to find the time to run. There were enough people "on the fence" to get something going. Don't let me down! I'd also like to call out those friends that were chatting it up with me this morning on email, and as soon as they got my Marathon email, they disappeared. Also, to those of you who literally hate me right now, you'll love me in November.



To the right of this post I've added two links. One is a link to a page that helps you map out your routes. You can also search your area for different routes others have mapped. It's free! I also included the SA Rock n' Roll Half website for your reference and motivation.



Before I go...I want to give you The Top 10 Reasons You Should Say Yes To Running This With Me:



10. You'll feel better during the day if you run.



9. You will look better...don't kid yourself...you're not 20 anymore.



8. If you really stick to it, you'll be able to run/walk further than you ever thought you could.



7. You get to buy new shoes.



6. For everyone that actually signs up and goes to SA, I'll buy a cute matching running shirts.



5. You'll be able to eat Mexican food without any guilt because you'll burn those calories in training.



4. You can talk about your training at the watercooler at work as if you're a real runner.



3. You'll be a good role model for your kids, neices, nephews, brothers, sisters.



2. For the rest of your life, you'll be able to casually mention that half-marathon you did. You'll make it seem like no big deal, but deep inside you hope the person you're talking to didn't do a full marathon.



1. We'll have a really good time getting away for the weekend!

Now, I'm going to try to figure out a way to have a little list of who's a YES and who's a MAYBE. Those of you who said NO...I'll keep your identity private, but just know...you'll have to live with that decision.
