It's rainy and cloudy outside today, and perfect weather for napping and watching movies all day. Seriously, all I wanted to do was lay under the covers, snuggle with my kitties and be a slug. It took me awhile to get out of the house and get to the gym, but I'm glad that I did! Today, I ran for 10 minutes straight! This is seriously awesome in my book. I've not done that since high school, when I was super heavy into sports year round and in the best shape of my life.

You know what else is awesome? In just under a month, I have doubled the mileage I am covering in a run. (By run, I mean a run/walk combination.) Last month, on 2/11 I did a 1.5 mile run. Today, I did a 3.32 mile run. This just boggles my mind. AND the run segments don't feel nearly as much like a slow torturous death like they used to. They are still hard towards the end for sure, but less like death, more like torture light. And really the first few sets of jogging feel 600 times easier now than they did a few weeks ago. Apparently they are telling the truth when they say if you stick with it, it will get easier.
