Happy Hump Day!  I’m linking up with the fantastic Workout Wednesday hosted by Diatta at Femme Fitale Fit Club and Sheila at The Frugal Exerciser.  Every Wednesday we get together and share our fitness-related posts for the week!

I’ve mentioned a few times how I just can’t believe that the end of 2014 is finally here.  To say the least, it’s been interesting! In the next several posts I’ll be giving a recap of the year, but for right now I want to tell you what I’ve got planned to race on 2015!

2015 Race Schedule

I’ve been very blessed that 2014 has been my comeback year for running.  It was so hard suffering through injury after injury, and I never want to live that life again!  Doing well at the Rock and Roll Half Marathon with Coach Kristy really gave me the confidence that I desperately needed.  So my strategy for 2015 is to continue running and add more long-distance races throughout the year.  Am I ready for the full marathon yet?  I am so tempted, but Bret is right–it’s still too soon.  But in 2016, there will be no excuses!

The theme for 2015 is VARIETY.  I’ve realized as a Philly Runner that I am bored!  Most races in some way incorporate Kelly Drive and/or MLK Drive, and I can only take so much of that. Next year there are a lot of races that will be a first for me, which I think will add to the excitement!  It will also take away the pressure of meeting a certain finishing time.
