Across the River and through the Woods

So my brother tells me a few days ago that he wanted to swim across the Suwannee River and did. I want to do that! However I just don't think my butt would make it across there before I decided to give up and drown. I also want to run a 1/2 marathon in March of 2010 but have never ran a race a day in my life. So I decided it was time to get serious and really start working out if I wanted to do these things without killing myself. My husband introduced me to the P90X system. His roommate is doing it and I found out some people at my gym were also using this program. How hard can it be if everyone is doing it? So I ordered the program and waited for its arrival. The next few blogs will document my journey on the 90 day program. I did take before pic's and will post them when I have something to compare the to, which should be in about 30 days.
