New Shoes???

I am a runner. about 2 months ago I bought new running shoes. well, i have yet to run in them... or even put them on outside of the store. I know...so sad. what happened to the days when i wore my new shoes right out of the store, went home, tried them out really well to make sure they worked great and were comfy...then sometimes I would even sleep in them or at least try to until my Mama caught me and made me take them off? Well...part of the reason is I have been sick and busy on and off over the past 2 months... and it's alergy season... but oh, this week...this is come back week--- or at least that is what I am planning! It is time to start training again...for something... I would love to run a marathon in October or November...but who knows... are there any runners out there who have or are having trouble getting motivated after a long hiatus from running? Any tips or secrets to getting started again, besides developing "chubb rub" (when your legs/thighs start to touch each other) and grossing yourself out... sorry if i grossed anyone else out with that phrase. let em know... it's going to take everything I've got to get back on the treadmill...

I'm in girl. January and February, when everything hit the fan, just turned in to March and I've only gotten in a few good runs each month. But, you know I don't do treadmills..how about two mornings a week at 7am at either my place or yours?? Because let's be honest, no way are we really going to do it AFTER work!!

I was going to ask you today about your running, but I forgot. I am back into it, but would love to train for something also. We need to chat!r
