Introduction

Running is a central part of my life. My plan is to run across the country. But there are many steps along the way. I think this blog, for me, will be a lot about that journey.

The idea hatched through many a conversation with my amazing friend and fellow 2 girls on the run blogger. We have some very important things in common.  We are both Spanish teachers who love to watch Spanish language movies (that's a rare quality among the people I know), love to travel, and, of course, running plays a large part in both of our lives. We also share family ties to a not too well known (in these parts) city in central Pennsylvania, which made us certain that we were destined to meet. The city is Altoona. Ever heard of it? I was born there.

Now I don't know for sure how this whole cross country run thing is going to work out, but what I do know is that we thought it would be fun and interesting (to us, anyway...and hopefully to some other people) to share some of our experiences along the way.

Thanks for reading!
