Morning Yall
I so did not want to run today, I did a run last night and it kicked my butt. This morning I didn't run until 8:00 which is late for me but I literally had to talk myself into getting up and running.
It is May yall, that means I will be doing 2 runs daily because I am afraid that I won't makie my goal if I don't and I really want to make my goal. So I will be running twice a day and praying that my ass will shirnk in these next 7 weeks.
I ran in a pair of new sneakers today and they tore my heels up, I took them all and the whole back part was bloody. I knew they were ripping my skin off but I was not going to stop because I may not have started again. I have been reading running blogs lately to try to improve my running and teach myself how to be effective and it is so cool to be a runner.
Anway I am done with my torture run for the day and it was torture cause I didn't want to do it. But it's done.

Way to go!
I do not think I am as motivated as you to keep going when I'm bleeding BUT I will keep you in mind as you just may inspire me to push a little harder on those mornings when I want to give up.
I completed w1 day 3 of couch 25k this morning and I was thinking this morning that I really need to invest in a good pair of running shoes. Any tips on what I should look for?
This first week has been great but I have a feeling it is going to get much harder so I'll checking out your posts for a kick in the butt and some motivation.

I didn't know it was bleeding like that I could feel scraping but I don't let a little pain stop me so I just ran through it.
As far as running shoes, I wear Z-coils to walk in but I can't run in them because they were slowing me down to much. I am running in cheap ass spalding sneakers and why you may ask, because they have air bubbles on the bottom of them and it stops the bottom of my feet from hurting like other running shoes do. I paid $21 for them and I have really expensive shoes but I like these best. Go figure

Way to go! I am so impressed with people that run. I swear I would not run if I was being chased by a bear packing an ak47 but I respect the dedication it takes. Not to mention that you are going to run twice a day! I'm tired just thinking about it.
While I can't run, I did ride my bike for an hour and did my push ups and sit ups. So I'm working it.
Go get 'em girl. I'm scared of you!

I actually started running twice a day last week but didn't make a commitment to it like I did today so it's on because I need to get this weight off of my ass.
Riding a bike for a hour is s lot. Would you believe I cannot even ride a bike. Nope sure can't.

Hey, it's never too late. Anyone that can run twice a day can ride a bike. I think you can do anything girl.
I checked out that pod cast you mentioned and I think I will use it for my bike rides. When she says run, I will peddle faster. When she says walk, I will peddle a little slower. Give me some variety.
