Week 4 - December 15th 

Surprising: "3FitPiggies" - Half Marathon Training Team 
Destination: Hamilton, OH
Content(s): (2) 13.1 Marathon "Only Half Crazy" ornaments, (2 sets of) 20 Weeks of Cards that Include Motivational Quotes/Health Tips! 

One item on my "#25By25" list is to run a 1/2 Marathon, and about a month ago one of my best friends from back home reached out to me and said, "Ashley! Let's do it! Let's run a half." 

So, in 29 days, we put together a training schedule, chose a Half Marathon (Hello, Flying Pig!) and requested off work. Because on May 3rd, we will be running in Cincinnati's Flying Pig Half Marathon. 

With a big goal like this, lots of motivation will be needed. So I sent our team an ornament the first week of training, to remind them that we are only 1/2 crazy for doing this ;) The package also included motivational quotes and fitness/health tips for the 20 week journey! Each week has a different letter to provide some encouragement. Oh, and I can't forget, a color coded training 20-week schedule! 

We've formed a texting group, which holds us accountable for our workouts. Because we are doing this! We are going to make it happen! Even though I'm in Indy and they are 100+ miles away, we are in this together.
