Post six

Hello! Yesterday was Superbowl Sunday. It was also a great day for my WISE project. I have been running everyday in order to work up to a half marathon. I ran early yesterday morning and then again with my friend Nikki in the afternoon. I am slowly but surely making baby steps. On Friday Brittney and I met with a guy who we thought was going to help us with our nutrition for the project. After meeting with him he was not really offering us what we wanted. I called my gym and found out that they offer nutrition classes and I spoke to someone name Kristi who thinks she might  be able to help us. We want someone to help guide us with what we should be eating for the running that we are doing. We also want a trainer to help us design a running plan that works  for us. Hopefully today I can speak to someone. Also my moms friend Jen who just ran the half marathon last week e-mailed me this morning with the names of people at the running store that helped he. She also sent me the names of websites that she found very helpful. Yesterday I was searching the internet for different half marathons in case we do not want to go to the one is Nashville. I found one that is a little bit earlier on April 10th in Clearwater. The reason there are not that many in Florida that time of year is because it is extremely hot. My friend Nikki signed me up to do the relay for life with her in a few months. This is great because it raises money for her cousin who is going through cancer and it also is great practice. Today after I have my meeting with Coach Love I plan on going out for another run today. Later this week I am going to run with my friend Lindsay who is also in the WISE program. She is doing something else for her project but she loves to run and she said that she wants to train with me. This is great because it will be huge motivation to run with her. I am going to go and E mail Jen back now. I am also going to do some research now on other running websites. Be back later. =)
