Walk, Don't Run

This is your invitation to join me and a few thousand others for the PF Chang Rock N Roll Marathon in January! As the title of this blog implies, I will be walking, not running. If you're reading this you know me, and you know that I'm no athlete. Last year two friends and I volunteered to get up WAAAY before dawn and pass out water to the runners and walkers (see post on "What I Learned About Marathons" from last January). At the time I was pregnant with the current focal points of the Blog of Chang. I think it was then that my friends and I decided that training to do the 1/2 marathon would be a good way to get rid of the baby weight we didn't shed as a result of childbirth.

So the time has come and training has officially begun for the 1/2 marathon! My friends Kelly and Sheri and I are committed to doing it (we'll be more committed when we've actually signed up and paid the registration fee). We'd love to have more friends there walking with us, cheering us on, and Mark and Matt would probably appreciate some friends to help with the boys that day! :) That said, sign up and join us to witness firsthand what could be the only athletic event that I'll participate in throughout my entire adult life!
