I keep telling myself and hearing from various sources that running gets easier (and even enjoyable) if you stick with it. I have completed four weeks of my running regiment. Each time I run, it gets harder....of course, I increase the running portion each time out. I find myself LONGING for the interruption in my music "WALK." Then I dread waiting for the guy to interrupt my music again and say "RUN." It would be so easy to cheat and start walking before he comes back and tells me to. After all, it is just me, my music and nature. I have been very proud of myself in that department. Not once have I "cheated" myself. I think that I can mark that as an accomplishment in my book.
To help me feel better, I wanted to tally what I've done so far (more for me to stay motivated than anyone else). It doesn't sound like a lot to those of you who run all the time, but for me it's a pretty big deal. Six hours of running/walking and approximately 24 miles.
Now, if I can make sure I motivate myself to run while on vacation next week, I'll be doing really well! Wish me luck.
