I have always had trouble sticking to a fitness plan.  I'm not sure why but I think it may be that I've never set a real goal.  Sure I've said I want to get to such and such a weight but that is something that can be adjusted or abandoned easily.  Well not this goal, I am going to run in the Disney Half Marathon on Jan 12th, 2013.

Training for me starts today, I am going to follow Jeff Galloway's training plan for beginning runners.  It is a 19 week plan but I have added 4 weeks where I will be doing the first week schedule an extra 4 time just to get myself started.  

I hope that in the end I can do the 13.1 mile in under two and a half hours, that is my goal in the race but I will just be happy to finish.

Wish me luck and if you are a runner maybe you can join me.
