In Training

I love that term "in training." Makes me feel like a real athlete and not just the chubby girl being laughed at as I flail my body in a run-like motion down the street. I'm currently in training for the Disney Princess 5K. Amazing how knowing that date is lingering there on the calendar makes you get out and push it. Two weeks ago I was all "oh I can run a mile kinda sorta but I might die at the end." Two days ago I finished my 2 mile run at 2.5 miles cause I just felt like I could give a little more despite the Nike+ voice in my ear telling me I'd hit my goal. Amazing what being "in training" can do!
