Let me know if you need any advice, want to ever go for a walk, etc. There are great, very affordable walking/running groups to join at the Running Room stores located throughout the area, and that's what got me started on this journey. I did their "Learn to Run," and have been hooked ever since!Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11526052345640484088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488137583770462035.post-51312046369935952912010-10-21T22:00:07.739-04:002010-10-21T22:00:07.739-04:00Alexa, you so amaze me girl - so proud of you.

It ...Seriously Alexa, I'm sooooo proud of you. It is really amazing what you accomplished and very few people have ever run a marathon. Never forget the feeling at the end. If you can run a marathon, you can truly do anything in life. Only words of wisdom: don't run at all for minimum of 2 weeks. I tried running 50 feet 1 week later to grab something and nearly yelled out in pain. And I wasn't sore at all, just sneaks up on you.

I am making a lifestyle change as we speak and I am just so inspired by your strength and determination. I don't know that I will be aspiring to run a marathon anytime soon but you definitely have provided the motivation I so need! I really enjoy reading your blog and have saved a couple of recipes that I am going to try in the next week! Take care and I hope that sitting and standing continue to get easier!Jen Hendricksonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488137583770462035.post-38450792630132715592010-10-21T10:20:52.140-04:002010-10-21T10:20:52.140-04:00Wonderful accomplishment, and post.
