Super Slackers

Between the craziness of the holidays, training for our upcoming half marathon (runDisney's Tinker Bell half is only nine days away!); work, school, and our new love, CrossFit we have failed to stay on top of regular blog updates.  It has been one whole month since our last post. One Month!  That is far too long, and on behalf of both of us, I extend our deepest apologies.  As our title and description so clearly state, the purpose of this blog is to journal our training process for any and all races we sign up for and provide motivation along the way.  Rest assured that we have still been training.  We run, we CrossFit, and we somehow manage to fit life in between.  We have only fallen short on the blogging aspect of our journey.  I am here to tell you that we are going to make a better effort to get back on track as a means to provide motivation for our readers, as well as to continue to hold ourselves accountable.  This is especially important to us given that we have recently had two friends (Stephanie Q., and Stephanie L.) express their interest in joining us in running a marathon this year.

Yep, I said it.  Marathon.  Twenty six point two miles of both pure bliss and pure torture.  We have yet to pick a race, but will be sure to announce it when it has been decided.  I'm thinking a fall race is in order since Danielle and I are both teachers and can ideally train during our summers off.

So please stick with us as we get back on our feet and get back in the groove of things.  Motivational Mondays, Wordless Wednesdays, the Matchstick Challenge, and regular workout updates will work their way back into the blogroll, and perhaps a Tuesday Ten and/or Friday Five.  

Happy running, happy blogging, happy, healthy 2012!
