I jogged tonight!!!!!!

I have never and I mean never, even when I was in high school and weighed 105 pounds jogged. 

I tried a new button on my treadmill tonight.  For 4 minutes the speed goes up so that you have to jog.  My first instinct was to shut it off, or get off the darn thing.  Then I thought what the heck this is experience is an adventure.  Why not have an adventure on my treadmill.

I jogged for 4 minutes - UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ida

ooohhh that is wonderful.  Its amazing how much our bodies just want to move and sometimes move FAST.  Next you will be running those marathons.  :-)

Thanks Sandra.  Don't know if I'll ever run a marathon.  Was interesting to see that I could jog instead of turning off the machine.

I'm TOTALLY envious of you right now

I've attempted it....and just don't do well with jogging.  My "head" REALLY wants to jog/run a 5k but I HATE it soooo much I just can't stick with any sort of training.

FANTASTIC for you - not *only* for jogging for four mins (which, by itself, is a HUGE accomplishment) but for also NOT allowing your preconceived fears to take a hold of you.  HUGE step in successing!

Thank you Pam.  My head doesn't want to job/run.  The machine made me do it

LMAO!  "The machine made me do it"

That's awesome Ida!!

I'm with Pam.. I have tried.. I have done it, but I just don't like it.. it does nothing for me. 

Some people just seem to thrive on running/jogging *cough*cough* BETH.. and I am envious of them.. but I just don't like it so much.

WAY TO GO for you though Ida!! Way to push past those demons!

Thanks Lisa.  It is tough.  I am by no means a gym rat.  I have no desire to work out, no desire to jog.  I like walking.  I know that to succeed with this I have to force myself to go to the gym.  I do like challenging myself on the treadmill by picking new buttons to try. 

Woo Hoo -- way to go, Ida! 

Thank you
