Welcome to Heidi J Cox's Running Blog

Hi Runners New, Old and Aspiring to Be!



Join us as we learn, inspire and have fun in our chosen sport of running. I look forward to your contributions and suggestions.




25 years ago I was the top female runner in my high school. I began to run again for the first time last year since I'd never entered an adult race. In 2009 I ran my first two half marathons.



My goal is to successfully complete the Marine Corps Marathon this October 2010. I've come a long way, learned a great deal and have a long way to go. Join me on my journey and that we can inspire each other as we reach our goals. Happy Running! Heidi J Cox

MCM Race 2 Register Tomorrow

I had a unique experience yesterday for a runner. I visited the Marine Corps Mararathon Building yesterday to pick up my race packet for tomorrow. It turns out that I live about ten minutes from there and I never knew it. It was pretty awesome to think that after tomorrow's race, I'll be assured a spot to register for the Marine Corps Marathon. Tomorrow's race is a 10K and it should be a lot of fun with the run on the Quantico Marine Base. It is sure to have a cross section of people running it, new to old runners. I will have some great blog material for future posts!

I have been getting back into my running routine since all the snow. I can't say I am fully up to speed but I feel ready for tomorrow's race. Starting today I'll be watching what I eat and drink. That includes no sugary drinks or those with chemicals like orange juice, Gatorade, Vitamin water etc. It will be all natural beverages and water only.

Next post after the race!
