Week 2 started with a stumble over the weekend. I went to the reservoir but only got in a mile run because I needed a restroom. It's kinda hard to run when you've got to go. Today I learned there's one by the basketball courts. Very useful information that I hope to use next time I'm there. LOL

Last night's run was successful. I ran 2.5 miles, walked a quarter mile and then ran just over a mile. I was winded and the cold air made my weak lungs hurt but even that's getting a little better.

6.2 miles still feels very daunting but I'm hanging on to a small ray of hope. Nothing I have accomplished in the last year has been easy... so why should this be any different? I just have to stick with it and keep trying.

Plus I've got about twelve donors to my charity 10K that I can't let down.

I am so way behind in my training and getting my arse into the running game. Gotta work on that when I get back into town...

It's called 'no excuses.' You can't let yourself come up with excuses of why you can't. Because you can do anything! I know you can!

Sister sledge you can do it. I have EVERY ounce of faith in you. I am sure it seems daunting though. Just like those people spinning seem daunting to me...

Thanks Kdawg! Have fun with HW tonight! I'm so jealous that she gets to meet you before I do!!!

I'm trying to convince myself that it'll get easier to run. At least my knees don't hurt as much as they did last week. I'm taking joint vitamins... I sometimes feel like an old woman with all the vitamins I take.
