I'm feeling extremely powerful right now. I don't say this to sound conceited, but it's the first word that came to my mind after my "core" workout today.
I'm in the heat of my half marathon training and couldn't feel better about how things are going. I'm still at 3 miles, 3 times a week but am following a training app on my phone and will be slowly progressing over the next few months. My race is May 3rd and I'm on pace to be fully prepared for that.
On top of the running, I just started doing a "core" video 3 times a week. Articles have said that a stronger core helps with running, so I figure it's worth a try.
I think the reason that powerful came to mind is because everything is going smoothly and I know God has it all under control...even on my tough days.
I'm ready for warmer weather and long runs outside!

Lofty Goals Ahead!
On May 3rd I will take on a feat that I haven't completed since having children - the Indianapolis Mini Marathon!!! Today was my first day of "training" though I really started preparing my body a few years ago when I took up running. The only difference from my 5Ks is an additional 10 miles. No biggie, right!?! ;-) I've not run this far in an extremely long time and I'm sure it won't be easy, but that is exactly why I started training today instead of a month from now when my app suggested. So, here goes nothing...wish me luck!!!
