One day I woke up feeling like I am finally ready to conquer the world. And all of a sudden I felt like I could have Lydia de Vega's (if you are Filipino, you would know who she is) endurance. So I decided to pursue what I had been dreaming of for a long time... Ladies and gents, this goes to the very top of my bucket list and that is to run half marathons in all 50 states. Yep, it's the mother lode of all. Well, at least for runners out there.
I know, I know. It's not going to be easy. It’ll take me a while, but I promise you I will get this done before I turn 50. I have 5 solid years to get this challenge done. With the help of the running gods (yes, I believe there are a few of them), I will accomplish this.
It’s not going to be easy. It’ll cost me money, time, dedication, a whole lot of planning and plenty of training to run the 50 states. I will encounter difficulties along the way and I am preparing myself for that. I know I will get this done though. Listen, at one point in time, my feet might give in, but I assure you my heart won’t. I will crawl if I have to.
As I write this, I have already signed up for my first half marathon for this challenge. My journey will start in May of 2020. I am excited beyond belief!
Friends, follow me and see how I am doing with this bucket list of mine. Plus, I need me some cheering on as well because this is something that I have envisioned to do over the years and by god I am not going to fail. I will make this happen and I will have 50 medals (in addition to the 38 that I already have) before I turn 50. That is what drives me to get this into fruition - the bling. If you know me, you know then that I collect running medals. So yeah...
