I Can Do This!

I think I'm starting to like running. Who am I and what happened to the girl who wouldn't run unless being chased with a knife?!

Yet here I am. Running. GA! I'm no longer chanting "I hate running I hate running I hate running." whenever I crank up the speed on the treadmill. When I started this right after Christmas I would walk a lap and then run a lap. Now I'm up to walking for 2 minutes and running for 3. And today I was thinking in my last run time "I think I could go for another minute." But that through myself for a loop and I didn't do the extra minute. And my last 5 minutes I upped the incline, to really feel it in my rear.

February was a rough month for me. Both Chuck and I fell off the exercise bandwagon. We just got lazy. I blame the winter. All the snow and cold just made me want to do nothing and I gained a little extra insulation in the last month.

But not now! I'm back Baby! And I mean business! Summer is coming sooner than we all think and I'm going to beach ready! I want to be healthy, fit, hot, and I want to get to the point where when I don't workout I miss it.

With these words written here I'm hoping it will help me stay committed. Other people have read it and with that it's holding me to my own promise.
