I went on a run today at lunch with a couple of coworkers, it was 4.5km, around 40 minutes of jogging/walking. And for my first run in years, it felt great (I don't know what I'll feel like tomorrow though)!
I went out and bought myself a shiny pair of running shoes, since I didn't even own a pair. If anything will help me run, it's a pair of pretty shoes. See:
Wow, what a changing last few months since working here. I didn't ride a bike, now I do almost everyday. I didn't run, now (hopefully!) I do.
Now if only I can have as much success at my Mom and M.in.L with getting in shape....

Yeah, Jen! Y'know, I do not think of doing things like running in marathons. It's a good idea!
Thanks! I thought it would be good motivation. Either practice and get good, or look like a fool. Hopefully, after this I'll be over the initial hurdle of getting started, and be able to continue running. :D
yeah, good for you honey, as a bonus you'll be in great shape for backpacking in S.A. As a side note now that I'm feeling healthy again. I've gotten back to the gym, after almost a month away. But as a bonus, no weight gain while I was away. Keep us posted on your progress.
Wow, kiddo. Nothing like jumping in with both feet! I'm betting you're sore today, but it'll get better. Good job!
Mom- yea, getting in shape for S.A. is my plan. I want to climb as many mountains as possible! Good job on no weight gain in the time off! I hope you can keep loosing more pounds as quickly as you were before!
Other Mom- Yea, I was definately sore today. And to top that off, yesterday was the first day of a 'womanly' month for me, so I was doubly sore. But I figured the best way to loosen up was to run again today. So I did. And I stretched good, and I'm happy again. :D
