A Challenge

This was me tonight..in my own mind..as I went for a run around the neighborhood. The perfect picture of health & fitness running effortlessly with a smile of joy upon my face. Ok, in reality I know I wasn't even close to graceful as I huffed, puffed & bumbled along, but with my treadmill out of commission for a while I finally swallowed my pride & took it outside (catch that rhyme?)

I managed to run for 35 minutes without stopping & felt so great afterwards that I really don't know why I don't do this every day. I've been doing an exercise video & the new Wii Fit thing, but nothing gives you the same "buzz" as a good run. So, I've given myself a new goal - to go for a run every day for a week. That's 7 days. Who wants to join me?? :D

Way to go, Deb! How did the week go? I won't join you, but I will definitely cheer you from afar and admire you from the sidelines.

So far I've run every day but one. :( I was gone all day yesterday & was not up to running when I got home at 10:45 pm. Plus it would have been sceeeeeery! I'll be out there tonight though!

You'd think I'd be losing some major poundage but NO! I will persevere though!!

Hey...when you starting your blog?
