Day 1

I DID IT!! I got up with a goal this morning of running for 37 minutes, and I DID IT!

Running really is a mental game. My body is not what talks me out of it, my mind does. It's not my body that wants to quit, my mind does. Getting control over my mind is the biggest obstacle when it comes to running... and when it comes to other areas in my life.  Self-confidence is definitely a mind game. But, that is something for another time.

I am thankful for the wonderful day I had.  I had a relaxing afternoon which included a nap :) Cailyn took me out for supper to Kelsey's, then took me for dessert to Williams. After that, we picked up a few groceries at WalMart. 

I am now 37 years old. And, I can run 1 minute for every year I've been alive. I don't think I've ever, in my life, run for 37 minutes straight.  In some ways, I am in better shape than I have been for the majority of my life.  Yes, my weight is still way above where I need to be, but I am working on it. That's something.

Bon nuit.
