I was talking to my friend Carolina the other day and she tells me about this half marathon she’s doing for her birthday (yeah, not my kind of birthday fun)…so, on a whim, I tell her I’ll train with her.

uh…are there still “take backs” as adults?

The schedule isn’t really that bad. The big runs are just on Saturdays. Tomorrow is 6 miles. In my head all week it has been 6 kilometers. So, I’m telling someone what my route is going to be tomorrow and they tell me I’ll have to double that for 6 miles. Say, wha?!

Oops.

So, either my Saturday big runs are going to be in kilometers, making it more manageable. Or, I’ll suck it up and go for two run/walks (I’m not kidding myself thinking I can run 6ks, much less 6 miles).

All that to say, that I’ve officially started to acclimate to the metric system.

Oh, and a plus…the 10 weeks end a week before Marc & I go to America to get hitched. Hopefully that’s enough motivation to get my bum off the couch!
