Yesterday I was feeling a little cranky and still not all that great. So I decided to fight back and get on the treadmill. I have to help myself where I can. I was hoping I could accomplish a 5k. I am not best friends with the treadmill and definately prefer to run outside. But this crappy weather hasnt made it possible yet. So I hopped on the treadmill knowing that a few weeks ago was my last run and it was about a mile and a half. I was pretty happy with that because before that I hadnt run in probably months. Well, I accomplished it. I set the treadmill on 5 mph which is leisurely for me and off I went. It was like I had something to prove and I did just that. 3.1 miles. And it felt good. It was that accomplished feeling I have been missing all winter while not running.
Today's reason for losing weight:
Health. Plain in simple. I want to be healthy for myself and my family. Wanting to be healthy has been weighing heavily on my mind lately.
Today I am thankful for:
*my husband who made a comment that running and exercise really does make a difference for me. Its kind of easy to *forget* that when you get away from it.
