I never believed I was going to be a runner, I subscribed to Runner's World for months before I ran my first step. When I did that first Penguin run back in April, I was prepared for that to be my 'try at running' and not run again. That first run changed that thinking for me. I ran side by side with Kelly and Kathryn, who were so supportive and encouraging, I thought I try again. And here I am, thinking 1/2 marathon thoughts!-30-
