Accomplishment at the gym!

Posted under health by The Blonde Diaries on August 19th, 2008 10:37 pm

I have a small accomplishment I want to share with everyone.  It occurred at the gym last Saturday and continued last night.  I am conquering the treadmill! I have never been a runner. In fact, I use to fake injuries in school to avoid running days in PE and I avoided all sports that involved running. But a few years ago I decided I needed to start jogging and I made it up to 4 miles an hour and 2 miles in half an hour before I got lazy and quit. Last month, I decided I was going to try again and started running again at 5.4 miles an hour and doing half miles each run. Fast forward to my accomplishments this past week - I am up to 2 miles at 5.4 miles per hour each run.

I am averaging a good 2-3 runs per week and I feel great. I can’t believe how far I have come. I have learned to believe in myself and that goals can be accomplished and trying new things is good for you. So I encourage you to do the same!
