Confession of a Fitness Slacker

I’m guilty, I haven’t been running for three weeks.

I had allergies/cold and then basically just got lazy and lost the confidence to run 10 minutes, walk 1, four times.

Nike+iPodThis afternoon I “made” Michele “make” me go running. She thought I should go back a couple weeks (possibly the run 5 walk 1 eight times). I decided to try to keep on schedule (most because 10-1-4 was four minutes shorter).

The temperature was perfect and my legs weren’t nearly as tight as normal. I ended up making it the whole way. YEAH! When I walked in the door Michele looked at me and asked if I just walked the whole way. I must have looked pretty good (good as in not sweaty or red-faced).

Tonight I’m super happy and looking forward to running on Wednesday. I’m also looking forward General Conference and having new audio to listen to.

  1. Congrats! My plan is to go to the gym. Eventually. I may even run when I get there, but I’m still undecided about it.

  2. You should try my 3 step diet.
    1. Eat whatever you want.
    2. Drink water instead of Pop (including diet, it’s the worst).
    3. Take the stairs once in a while.

    It works great.

  3. Someday I’ll understand the joke with the three step diet.

    Seriously though, I don’t drink pop, just water… maybe part of my problem is eating anything I want (rather than everything), that and I don’t have stairs at home or work.
