Running

All my life I've wanted to be a runner, and all my life I've hated running. Recently I was reading a blog of an acquaintance of mine. She's been running for a year and lost an insane amount of weight, I'm thinking around 80 lbs. In her blog she said that she had always been a chubby kid, had always hated running. That gave me hope.

Laura's blog inspired me to get the Nike+ iPod kit. This time around, I know I'm going to make it. I'm really starting to enjoy running, and I understand why people say its addicting.

I'm not very good at it yet. I can't run very long or very far without stopping to walk. But each time I run I find I'm a little faster, or I can run a little further. I'm really psyched.

So I've linked to a couple of running blogs in the side bar, so that I will remember to read them regularly for inspiration.
