I am so psyched!  And it'll be awesome to get a shirt and a medal for a 5k - that's pretty unusual from what I understand!

I hope I don't get addicted to them like my partner and my bff who runs - they're both insane!  :D

AWESOME!!!  that's just great! You can totally do this. I will be doing basically the same thing, although my 1/2 is in January--I have about 26 weeks to train, and started the couch to 5 k this very morning.

6 weeks after my surgery, I walked a 12k in Spokane WA. A friend of mine came from Montana to join me, support me and walk with me! I  good friends!

there with you in spirit~!

That's awesome and super ambitious!  I can't fathom running a half!  (I can barely fathom running a 5k at this point in my life.  LOL.)  

You rock :D

I am super happy for any part of it I have to walk, believe me! I am not wrapped up into running if I am tired. I walked the 12k, and the following week I walked/jogged a 5k. 

It's about being active and happy and well, outdoors!  So proud of you!

I always enjoy your posts, by the way
