Perhaps I'm a Runner?

Flash-foward several months again and I've discovered that this whole running thing is an addiction...and I've gotten Greg hooked. Muahahah. :>


Follow my journey as I prepare for the Chicago Marathon and get in tip-top shape. A far cry from my days as a fat kid that took like 25 minutes to run a mile in gym class. If only Mr. Simpson could see me now...

Back in the saddle again

Running has become routine again, which is awesome. I've been sticking with 3 minutes, or usually about 3 miles, at least 3 times a week.

I'm beginning to realize that running one of the few things in my life that isn't totally stressful. It makes me SO thankful and gives me time to think more clearly. The irony of that is that, somehow, I can zone out in a room full of TVs, blaring music and talking people. On the treadmill, watching the news, I constantly find myself thanking God for all I have. I am SO blessed. And I can feel that in my legs and my entire body as I'm running. There's nothing like it.

Plus I've lost two pounds, bitches.
