1/2 Marathon Training...uh...what?

Let me tell you, when you are ready to be parents, this "waiting" thing is hard.  And what is even worse than the "waiting" is the "ON HOLD" part.  We know its the right decision to put infertility treatment on hold, due to our lack of job, money, etc.  But it is kind of hard on the heart.

Picture this: Two people  POOR people with little-to-no work, stuck in a TINY apartment all day.  Add in a great dane, 110 degree temps, and the fact that their TINY apartment does not get below around 85 degrees.  They are already miserable, and then factor in the no baby, no trying part and it gets a little depressing.

Somehow that led us to training for a Half Marathon.  We get out early a few mornings each week, we focus on a goal, we have time with each other and no distractions.  Plus, if I am putting my body through training, its a little easier to accept that now is not a good time to get pregnant.  We're doing good right now, and I have loved every minute of it so far.  We're only in week 2 though, people!  If anyone wants to come cheer us on at the White Rock Half, you are more than welcome.  We'll need you.
