Unrealistic Goal... from 0 to 13.1

Let me start by saying... I'm not a runner in fact, I really dislike running. So why would I sign up for an International half marathon crossing into Canada and back only 11 weeks out you ask?  I asked myself the same question.  Honestly the thought of running had been nagging at me for some time. I remember seeing my dad at the age of 70 begin running marathons. He ran/walk 14 years consecutively until he passed away a few years back.  I will keep you updated on my progress, challenges, and tips I learned along the way.
