Running
I've decided that running, or my lack of ability to, is more of a mental thing than a physical barrier for me. More often than not, I hear myself saying "this is too difficult, I need to stop" or "I'm not going to make it the whole 5 minutes" -- I think this is really detrimental to my progress. My short-term (3 month goal) is to be able to run for half an hour straight -- my longer term goal (6 month) is to run a 5K. I would love to be able to run a marathon like my 40-50 year old uncles. That would be pretty awesome. I think I might need a year or two to make that goal -- with some serious training and speedwork involved. Cross my fingers I'll be able to run at least 2.5 miles striaght in three months! A 5K isn't that much longer only 0.6miles. Hopefully my knees will hold up -- I'm excited about this goal.
As the week has gone on the gym has been slowly decreasing in participants -- everyday there are less and less people who show. Though not to get ahead of myself -- I'm sure they'll be back in full force on Monday. I have started to rearange my gym days based on the busy days at the gym. I have been trying to skipp Mondays -- because they're so freaking busy -- and definately going on Fridays because there arent' many people that like going on Fridays for some reason.
Unfortunately my life is rather lackluster at the moment no new "scandels" so speak of.
I really need to go furniture shopping today -- I should call it furniture stalking. I hate going -- but I really could use some furniture. *sigh* My car also needs an oil change after all of that driving. Sucks. Sucks.
