resolute


It's now 9 months into 2010, and I'm still keeping my New Year's Resolution! For 9 months in a row! Not trying to rub it in or anything, but still. Proud of me! =)

I had no history as a runner... so it amazes me to have kept it up so long. It helped to enlist a friend to run with. Jim over at Terrell Daily Photo has helped motivate me. I can easily talk myself into skipping - but having to answer to someone else helped keep me honest.

We found the couch to 5k program from my boss Kim last November, and decided to make that the new year's resolution. And so far, so good. I love the program.

I need to go back and calculate my total mileage run so far this year, but I found a cool site to track it online going forward here! Running-log.com is a good site to enter and track and view daily/weekly/monthly progress.

I've gone through 2 pairs of running shoes so far this year - and too many aches and pains to list. suffice it to say, running daily will involve ankle, knee, leg and back pains of all sorts at different times. suck it up. run through it.

Oh, and don't leave your ipod in your shorts when you do laundry.
