About me: 
I'm a newbie at running, with lofty goals and a mind set on transcending what I believe I can achieve.
Why do I run: 
I've wanted to for a long time. To be able to eat more. For health. For the sense of achievement by setting goals and reaching them through consistency in action. I've come to love running.
Why I started running: 
A friend challenged me to participate in a crazy 8-day Alpine Run, covering 270 km of distance and 15 km of altitude. A couple of weeks earlier I had resolved to get fit, but done nothing. So I tought: "what the heck, why not, it'll be fun". I'm sharing my experience to advance from couch potato to marathoner and alpine runner trough this training log and my blog.
