7-15-10 Becoming a Runner :)

I am so glad it's Thursday! Jacob doesn't work on Fridays, so Thursdays are our Fridays. Which means we get two. Love it. I started a running program today. And I really liked it! I'm going to train to run a 5k. Can't wait. I've always been so discouraged about running because I start off too quickly and then never want to do it again. But this program that I'm doing called Couch to 5K basically outlines a program for beginners so that they start our properly. This way I won't try to run 3 miles at 7 mph and then wonder what kind of lunatics actually like running. No thanks, I'll stick to this plan for beginners. Tomorrow we're going to go get me fitted for running shoes at this store that Jacob used to work at called Fleet Feet, a store for athletes basically. I did my first run/walk today, and I felt really excited about it! Can't wait to be running 3 miles. Let me tell ya, it's not something I've ever thought I'll be able to do. But I'm wishing myself luck. I can do it. I will do it (Rocky music starts now . . .). :) :)
