Notes
I found my Excel workbook of my first, truly tracked, training run. I felt inspired and motivated by watching my brother and thousands of other dedicated runners who gutted it out the previous day at the Twin Cities Marathon in dangerous hot and humid conditions. I told myself that I had to give this running thing an honest try. If I didn't like it after 3 months I'd move on. Little would I know that this painful run/walk/shuffle would lead to a life changing hobby for me, still going strong nearly 5 years later.
