Just getting started.....

Can really be the hardest part! I didn't sleep much last night and when my alarm went off - yep - the negotiating began. But I decided to get up anyway and just play it by ear. I had a hard time talking myself into running, let me tell you! It was cold, dreary, and rainy today! But I did it - I had my iPod all wrapped up in a Ziploc baggie, just in case! Better to be safe then sorry. Again. That was a lesson I only had to learn once....I hope!

Anyway, I had a good run. A little over 4 miles. Very slow, but I'm OK with that. My body has to adjust to the further distances I think. The 6 mile runs are really different for me, so I'll take slow for a couple of weeks.

I'm going to start the 100 pushup challenge again, so I did the first day today.

No hills today at lunch because it was raining! Hopefully I can get back to that tomorrow.

You are remarkable! I don't know how you do all that! 6 mile runs, pushups, hills. Wow.

I did the 5 mile bike ride this morning but it was cold, cold, cold! Had a t shirt, flannel shirt, and big sweatshirt on but wished I had put a jacket on over that. Then did 30 pushups and 30 situps when I got back.

Have a good day!

Thanks! I'm blushing! I had a day of absolute slack over here though. Really felt terrible all day. I'm feeling better now, but I actually even left class early. Now that is SICK!

Brrrr! I did check your weather this morning and it seemed cold - in writing!

I can't do the full situps like you can. You are strong!
