Wensday Update...

Wens Oct 7th Oct was a rainy and windy day and I really had to 'scew' up my gumption to go for a run... (and I use that term loosely!) After I did my warm up exercises and got my stop watch I headed out.  I felt like Iwanted to stopafter abot 5 minutes.  I perserviered and decided that I  up my gumption to go for a 'run'.

After  finishing I tell you I felt great.  I even set a new record for me!

Ive done some investigating and if your like me and want to run or at the very least stay or get in shape do the following:

1. Start - .That is the biggest... just start.  Start by walking.  Then over a period of weeks work yourself up to jogging and add a few minutes every week.   Remember to check with your doctor before starting any exercise program!
2. Repeat step 1!  Sound simple enough?
3. Set goals...  measure your goals.  I started walking/running and now have shaved time off of my meager run of 2km.  Next step for me is to add some length.

To keep me motivated I found this great blog if your interested http://theartofrunning.wordpress.com/ to check it out.
