I started Monday used the track at the YMCA. My lungs do not cooperate with running so I jogged until I couldn't breath right and then started walking. I have not smoked a day in my life so I don't know why they have to be so difficult. Sigh...
As I was starting my brisk walk, I was battling in my head about jogging in front the other people. I had thoughts of, "What if they make fun of my jiggles. Holy Moly I have big boobs! What if they are having thoughts of me getting black eyes!" I know those thoughts crossed my mind!" A big step for me was to overcome those thoughts and jog anyways. My health is at stake here and it is important. I even took the time to stretch and I have NEVER done that in a gym before. I was always to embarrassed too. I guess therapy was good for me in a lot of ways.
I am following the running plan from Couch to 5K and I am hoping to be at 5K level by March 6th. Now I wish I was going to Orlando with everyone else! Oh well, maybe Corey will plan another retreat.
