The Gym....

Well, I made it to the gym this morning. I think I thought of every excuse not to go while I was getting the kids ready for school but ultimately I went. I walked briskly on the treadmill for 30 minutes. Not long I know, but it's all I can manage right now. Im hoping to increase that time slowly. My knees were killing me by the end.....it sucks being fat. I took Addison with me and left her in the daycare center at the gym. I was worried she wouldnt make it without her brothers but she did great! That is a good sign that I will be able to continue going in the morning. Anyway, I hope to eventually start jogging. That is a ways off though considering my knees, but I would like to be able to run 2 miles a day in the near future. Ive never been a good runner. Even in the Air Force, I struggled with running. But, back then it was for an entirely different reason. I had always been larged busted and that made running uncomfortable. Now, I dont have that problem thanks to surgery but Im big everywhere else so I still cant run comfortably. I would like to eventually run a small 5k or something. Who knows maybe one day I will enjoy running......?
