Am I Crazy?

So.. I've signed myself up for several races leading up to my goal of running a half-marathon in March 2012. Am I crazy?  I have continued running everyday for the past 2-3 weeks and honestly, have really enjoyed it. Yes, the first few days sucked, but now I look so forward to my daily run. I know I'm not covering long distances yet, but when I ran 2 miles straight the other day, I was very proud of myself. I still have my 5 mile race coming up on the 27th, which I am extremely nervous about, but I'm hoping it won't be so bad. We'll see!

Race schedule:

5K October 8
5K October 30 (with Ben in the stroller dressed in his Halloween costume) I'm so excited about this race!
10K November 6
Half-Marathon March 2012 (AHH)

Any of you runners out there please feel free to offer your running tips. I need them! This is something that I really didn't think I would like, but now that I've gotten into it, it has been great "me" time. I run while listening to books on tape, which to some I'm sure sounds boring, but I really like it. It makes the time FLY by.
