Since my last entry, I found a half marathon in Allentown, PA, that’s on May 3rd. I signed up and am currently training for it. Without that, there would be no hope of reaching the 1000 mile goal for this year!

How I did it: I went to a Nationals game down in Washington, D.C., and bought a ticket since the Red Sox were closing out a series there. They lost the game 9-3 , but it was well worth it! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I found a chapter of Habitat at my college and signed up for a winter break trip. A group of my friends had done this before, so it was fairly easy to find out how you can sign up. I haven't left yet, but we leave this Saturday on a 14 hour van ride to SC. So excited! Read how I did it…
This is going to be one of the more difficult goals for the first half of this year. All of my closest friends from school, as well as my girlfriend, will be spending the semester studying in various cities around the world and I’ll be on campus.
Normally there’s something to keep my occupied, but I’m worried that time will just pass too slowly and some of them won’t want to put the effort into visiting me that I would put in for them. Thus, it’s going to be difficult.
My girlfriend and I were talking about New Year’s resolutions we wanted to make for this year and we’re going to try to run a half marathon together.
First thing is first: I’ve got to find a race to run!
