Welcome to my crazy train (marathon training 101)

I made a decision this week that I am going to run a marathon. I have one full year until race day. I have been training for a half marathon but said enough is enough. I got this. The last 3 years I have been running or attempting to run 5km races but something changed last year and I was able to run them, then 10km races. Now I am able to run 21.1km with no effort. So I decided to stop making the I can't list but the I can list. I decided to not let all those people who told me I couldn't but to listen to the ever soft voice of Jesus saying I can.

                                   My first ever 5km

He said, “Don’t worry about it—there are more on our side than on their side.” 2 Kings 6:16

I am saying I can. I am saying I got this. My health has become a priority and running has become an escape. It has become my time with God. I am excited to run my 42.2km race but know that I am boarding my crazy train of training. I am blessed to have my amazing husband and friends pushing me every step of the way. Never say you can't. I never ever thought I would be running let alone a marathon. I'll be honest 3years ago it hurt to run, it was a struggle to breath but now I love it. Now it is much more. It is something I can now say I got this. Achieve all God has for you. Achieve all your dreams. You got this.
