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

41 Days till MCM

One year and a half ago I made a commitment to myself that I would run the Marine Corps Marathon. I had not run in over 25 years, at all.

Today it is 41 days until I will be running that race.

Yes, I am a little anxious but I have been training, mentally and physically for several months. This is really a story about making a commitment to yourself and following through on it. It means doing what it takes to make that commitment, that dream, that goal ---making it happen.

It all started with a dream and then a short run around the block.

Happy running!
