Last year I trained for a half marathon but didn't pay for it. About 3 weeks until race day I started to really struggle with depression and decided to focus on me. I felt like a failure though for backing out on the half mary. So this year I got an email that I could sign up early and get a free tech tee. I was already planning on doing it but had the money and a free tee is always nice. I am bit nervous but starting to run towards March 27! With $75 already invested I know I have to stay focused. I am excited because after this DH and I are eying a fall marathon to celebrate our 30th birthdays (fall is half way between his and mine).
