Addiction??
 
Let me start off saying that I have NEVER been a runner. I have always hated it, mostly because I have never been good at it. As of 3 weeks ago, I have been running around my neighborhood and I am officially ADDICTED. I love the feeling after the initial 1-2 miles of just gooooooooing, running and not wanting or needing to stop or walk. I have a 10-mile race planned for April, and let me just say I cannot wait!!

Ok, after reading this post....endorphins anyone?? haha.....

Oh yeah, endorphins are my drug of choice.

Love the endorphins! I'm not quite into running yet, but I'm getting there. Frankly, my favorite exercise is weight lifting. I love the rush I get of accomplishment when I am finished and exhausted!

I am so glad that someone feels the same way that I do!!! I have never been a runner, I always HATED it! But For the last week, I have been running 2 miles a day. I love sprinting the last bit, it's just amazing how fast my legs can go. And then once I stop I love the euphoria feeling! It is amazing. So releasing, it's hard to explain but I know you girls know what I am talking about!!!

I plan on entering the 5k LA marathon that is at the end of march. Later this year I would love to do a half marathon. And then hopefully next year I would love to do the LA marathon.

I just am in shock about how excited I am about running. I love it! :carrot:
