7 Minutes can change your life

Here's the scary thing about putting N&H together - we're both super enthusiastic individuals especially about an idea we both deem as GREAT. I would argue this as a dangerous friendship and you'll quickly see why when you read The Idea.

We both have our own reasons for thinking this idea is not only fantastic but actually achievable and you'll see those reasons play out here, on our blog.

This idea started to blossom after I (Hilary) completed my first half November 2011 in Richmond and both us recognizing that we are going to turn 30 in 2013.

Because you can't beat the original conversation from April 9th, 2012:

Natalie:: so here's what i'm starting to think....i'll do the hard rock here in nov - the disney princess half in feb and then the full in richmond in nov 2013....

  maybe

  i might be on crack i'm not sure

  but the thought of doing a marathon the year i turn 30 seems proper

12:30 PM Hilary: Ok listen - I was consider that EXACT same schedule. My knees didn't react well after the half so doing a full scares the shit out of me

  OH OH OH

  what a great challenge

  we do 26.2 to celebrate our 30th year and how awesome we are

12:31 PM Natalie:: exactly

  and then we never have to do it again

 Hilary: I could get on board with that

 Natalie:: and we can swap the disney pricness for this nike one if we wanted

12:32 PM Hilary: I don't know - the disney one is right around my 30th birthday - and I've heard it's amazing

 Natalie:: well i've always wanted to do it

  like ALWAYS

 Hilary: but we should also add maybe like a 10K in Nashville or something

  between the disney and the full

12:33 PM Natalie:: it's feb 22-24, 2013

  TOTALLY

  so keep the edge up but not burn out to start marathon training

 Hilary: I think we may have a plan forming here

12:34 PM Natalie:: i'm digging this

 Hilary: me too! i'm scared but I'm digging it

12:35 PM Natalie:: me too - tomorrow i may not want to do the marathon

 Hilary: but the goal is to FINISH the full not sprint it

  hahahaha

 Natalie:: exactly

  and i did the 3 day

  and survived

  so it's not that it's not DOABLE

 Hilary: and I never thought i could do a half and I did

  agreed!

  we can totally do this

  and we should have a blog

 Natalie:: okay you may have just sold me with the blog

12:36 PM you know the way to my heart

 Hilary: <3
