I went out running Monday (Brrrr!) morning and out of 1.5 miles, ran about 3/4 mile. I didn’t go quite as far as I would have liked, mostly because we dipped back down to freezing weather. On the plus side, when I started walking (I walk about half a mile to warm up), I thought running was going to be painful and unpleasant - it just didn’t feel good even walking. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it actually felt really good…and not just because it helped keep me warm. :) I didn’t go walking yesterday, but I’ll be taking advanatge of my days off the rest of the week to run in the afternoon when it’s warmed up a bit. I also found a Web site called www.connectingconnectors.com that’s for overweight women who are running or walking to lose weight. They have state chapters as well and membership is free, so I signed up for that. Hopefully that will help me keep on track with running. Eating’s gone better as well, though I did succumb when one of the copy editors brought in a bag of cheetos. We have entirely too much food at work. Other than that, I’ve stayed on track and kept my foods healthy and portions reasonable.
