About me

Location Boston, MA
Introduction Welcome! My name is Lauren and I was born and raised in the Boston area, so being a sports fan was a requirement. However, I was always the girl on the soccer field playing with butterflies instead of focusing in on the game. Needless to say I was not very athletic and therefore a little heavy in middle school. As I entered high school I was determined to get fit and healthy, but I needed a little push. That was when I discovered running. I ran my first race (5K) with my mom and could barely finish it. It has been a long and bumpy road since that first race with a lot of injuries, success, and failures. My ultimate goal is to run the Boston Marathon, but I am a little scared. Again, I need a little push which leads me to this blog. This blog will chronicle my training and races and hopefully push me to run the Boston Marathon (and other marathons) by April 2012.
