Tomorrow I start an epic journey. I will go places that I have never been. See things I thought I would never see. All the while in... sneakers. I am going to run. Outside. Inside. On a very regular basis. I am committed to running 4-5 days a week. I am committed to running a half marathon. Makes sense right? I was barely able to complete the one mile run in 8th grade, why not run 13 miles next time I decide to do something athletic.
I mean, when not in shape, take the bulls by the horn and make him your b***h. I am going to run, I am going to run so much that I can justifiably get the sneakers that count your steps and coordinate with a watch... I will be wearing t-shirts with various 'races' on. I will be supporting a cause just to say I finished something. Why not. I have never done anything so athletic in my life and I am pretty sure that I am more excited about working out and running than I have been about anything in my life. By anything I mean exercise. I have been very excited about shoes, cocktails, vacations, a good eyebrow shape, etc.
Exercise has been my forgotten, long lost sister. I didn't know her. I didn't know who she was or where she lived... I didn't know where to send my holiday cards but I also never received them. We have been reunited and as I get to know her, I will keep our progress as a team visible so that I can see where I have come from and where I am headed. For me. As I am sure no one else gives a sh*t.
