Welcome to Runs and Kisses! My name is Shawn. (Yes, I am a girl, and yes, this confuses a LOT of people!) I’m 25 and live in Western New York. I’m trying to balance full time school and work with training to run a half marathon. I have started running in the beginning of 2010 and have been kicking for my goal of 26 races by my 26th birthday in October. I decided to start blogging because I want to share my new found passion for running and fitness. I lost about 40 pounds last year and am managing to keep it off through, you guessed it, diet and exercise. Don’t worry though, this isn’t just about health and fitness.
