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

Sweat and More!

No one ever drowned in sweat.

Author Unknown

Well this is SO true. I've been focusing on increased numbers. We run 4 days a week and now Monday and Wednesday are up to 7 miles. Thursday will be 4 miles and Saturday will be 14 again! The Marine Corps Marathon is Halloween Day so we need to stay on task.

Sweat has been the key. For the last few weeks it has been over 100 degrees with unbelievable humitity. I've been waking up and running with my crazy runner friends at 5:30 or 6:00 am. What's crazier is the humidity is high even at that hour. So, lots of sweat!

Side benefit: I don't worry about what I eat that day!

Happy Running!
