Start running regularly.

I do run, but only once in a while. BUT when I do run, it is the most amazing thing in the world. It is the only time in my life that I don’t have to have the RIGHT anwser, I don’t have to answer to a three year old or a husband, I don’t have to be pretty, I don’t have to get it right, I don’t have to cook or clean or do laundry, I just have to run. It is a time to be just me, and at the end of the day, I want to be just me ALL the time.

I can run two miles, no problem I think. We did start running long distance in soccer but it’s nothing. One problem though is that I hurt my achilles tendon. Like, it’s swollen and it ‘squeaks’. Quite amusing, but it hurts. :/

I’ve been running twice a week for the past fortnight and it’s actually happening. It’s not the commintment I’m struggeling with but the self motivation to keep on going. I think the fact I’m running alone instead of with a friend like before is what I find hard. LOL I guess it helped as I wouldn’t want to look bad in front of the other person. I can mangage just a few minutes at a time however each time I do run I get further and further – which is great as it can only get better no matter how slowly I improve. I’d rather run steadly though than slowly jog I enjoy stepping to the beat and I’m a rock punk fan.

I was running once a week 2 months ago and was manageing 30 minutes non-stop however I sprained my ankle and I’m only getting back into it now.

I made the mistake of running today at 12 O clock – the mid day sun was unbearable so I’ve decided to run in the mornings. I really don’t know how this will go I’m NOT a morning person at all! I’ve set my clock for 6:30am and hope to be out at 7:00am – I’ll run and walk my route and hopefully be home before all th school kids come out to go to school.
wish me luck – :(
P.S – I’m running to get more fitter also I’d like to get into the early morning routine as I’ll have to get used to getting up early for work.

Hmm well I run a lot about twice a week for soccer. That’s good enough for me. I don’t just run, I practice at soccer, but running is definitely included.

Getting in motion is the difficult part. I keep starting and doing it for like a week, but then I skip a day for some reason or another and it just stops. I’m becoming one of those people that irritate me so much; I complain about the imperfections of my body, but I don’t do anything to change it.

Next week, when I won’t be working so much…every day, for two weeks, and then it will be routine.

&& I had no idea I could run a mile with practically no problems.. In under 10 minutes, I’m proud. But I know I’ve still got a lot to improve on. I ran for soccer try-outs, which I made yay!

:DD

good for me.

Uhh. I forgot about this goal. I wanna do it, and I live right by the beach. The only problem is that I’m 15, so I can’t go by myself. Oh, and I hate when people can see me. They just pass by in their car and see me running. I guess that’s my problem, but I don’t know how to NOT care.

And am being more ambitious this time by running further away from my house when I start out because I then Must Run Back. It’s a cunning way of, well, something. I’m not sure what.

Anyway I’m feeling encouraged that although am currently crap I’m not as crap as I thought I would be.
