I think I can ...

Hmmm, so the press release never came : ) Oops! Sorry friends ... I got busy with the craziness of life and law review (which often can be used interchangeably in my world right now!) and just never got back to it. Most of you should know the news anyway -- about my imminent relocation to Dallas -- but, if I get a chance, I'll try to come back and fill you in on what's going on and my thoughts on my upcoming change of address.

But I've got other news to share! I'm a little nervous to put this out there into the blogosphere, just because part of me feels as if it still may not happen, but the $$ has been paid so I guess fiction will become reality after all. What, you may ask, has inspired such anxious trepidation?!

I'm running a HALF MARATHON!

No, your eyes did not deceive you ... I'm signed up for a half marathon in Orlando, Florida on March 7. So in exactly eight weeks (man, that number seems really tiny), I will, hopefully, be relaxing in a Disney hotel room and recovering from the abuse I will have just inflicted upon my body.

I know what you're thinking -- "Krysta's not a runner!" It's true, I haven't become one yet, but I'm getting there. I think it was almost a year ago that I admitted to the Internet world that I wanted to learn to enjoy running, and I finally do! That in and of itself is a tremendous accomplishment in my book, but there are still a lot of miles that I have to cover on my short little legs : ) I can't even admit to you right now how far I currently can run -- let's just say I have a long way to go -- but I'm ready to get down to business. And then I have to figure out a way to keep pace with my roommate who, needless to say, is at least a half a foot taller than my 62". But we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

So there it is. I'm running a half marathon. Try to comprehend that ... because I can't yet : )
