I'm having a hard time starting...

Work has been insane.  Only a week and a half in and I'm losing my ever-loving mind.  It doesn't help that the temps have been over 100 every single day so I haven't been out to run.  I haven't been exercising as much as I should because I am so tired.  And when I mean so tired I mean, I get home, do some things around the house, make dinner, shower and sleep.  Last week, Tim had to put me to bed.  It was only 8:30pm.

This weekend I went to WA to surprise my friend for her birthday.  Well, her husband had me surprise her.  It was awesome.  We laughed so hard we cried, we ate some yummy food, drank some yummy drinks, and celebrated.  We celebrated being healthy.  We celebrated the birth of my friend.  We celebrated life. 

So since I'm all trying to be motivated and should be training for a 1/2 marathon in now less than 4 months, I will start tonight.  Strength and stretching.  It may feel really good being as I'm SO tired.  Then tomorrow- 2 mile run.  We have back to school night tomorrow so I'm debating waking up and going at 5am.  That's nuts.  We know I won't.  I'll do it when I get home around 7.  It shouldn't be nearly as hot.

I hope you all have a great week.  And I leave you with this picture.  You, too, can start today.

  1. I know what you mean about it being hard to start. Tonight, instead of getting back at it, we went to U's to have left overs. And then? cake! BAH!

    Tomorrow I will be better. And there will be exercise. I think I need more immediate rewards. Something to appeal to my competitive side. Maybe there's a program I can find...
