Welcome to the Garrick family blog!!! Tanner and I got married on May 23, 2009 and I am using this blog to chronicle the events of our marriage! I wanted to create someway for us to remember our first year but to be honest I am not very good at keeping a journal so I thought I would try blogging.

Half Marathon

This summer’s schedule has been a little chaotic! I have had to make two trips to Florida, started grad school, and just got back from a very quick visit to New Jersey.  All this has not really encouraged my healthy eating and exercise life style. Therefore, I have decided that I am going to run a half marathon. What better way to get in shape then to train to run 13.1 miles right. I am absolutely a genius, for developing this plan, or absolutely insane. I haven't decided which. The Governor's Cup Road Race Half Marathon will be held on Saturday November 5, 2011.  The marathon begins at the State House on Main Street and finishes at  USC's Horseshoe. A portion of race proceeds benefit Eat Smart Move More South Carolina, an organization dedicated to obesity prevention through physical activity and nutritional education initiatives.

I will begin training tomorrow morning and log every few days to let everyone know my progress. Wish me luck!
