30 Day Challenge

I read a very inspiring blog post the other day,

 from one of my favorite people/bloggers (that I have actually never met).

Walk Before You Run

Did you read it??  See, INSPIRING!

I think that's always my problem with the goals I set out for myself,

I start too big, and then fizzle out.

I want to run 3 miles in one day, when I know I can't even do 1 mile.

Or even get my ass on the treadmill.

We had a little scare not last month.  Not a big deal, but I though I was pregnant.  And that wouldn't be a bad thing, far from it.  I was just scared, cause I realized I haven't done any of the things I wanted -and needed- to do before we have our next baby... like potty training Clark, running a 5K, dropping a few hundred pounds.  I've been doing well on the other little goals I set for myself, a couple months ago.  My family is on a better schedule and on the way to better eating habits (that is taking a bit longer since someone -Dad- is such a big baby and junk food-aholic). 

 I am just not doing well on my running goal.  

I am no where near, where I should be for the end of December.  

We (my friend and I) set the date for our first race!

March 18, 8K, here in Virginia Beach.  

So, I have a little over 3 months to train myself to run 5 miles.  

I know I can do it.  I just have to take baby steps to get there.  

I am not a fan of running, I really hate it.

Like totally 100%

But it is something I want to do with all of my heart.

(I've just got to get my body on board.)

I am going to do a 30 day challenge where I run/jog/walk really fast,

EVERYDAY!

I am allowing myself to take Sundays off, 

but I am jogging all the other six days of the week, 

for the next month, until Janurary1.

I am going to start the new year out right, ahead of a goal, on track!

And maybe this running everyday will help me develop a good habit, 

so that when I start pushing myself longer and harder, 

I will be able to stay on task, instead of just giving up.

I can't wait.  I really really am hoping I can do this!
