NEW YEARS

I haven't written on here because I haven't been exercising.  It's been so freezing that I stopped, which is a terrible excuse, but I don't have a treadmill and walking during the day was just as cold as night time.  Once I get a treadmill or the weather warms up, I will be exercising again.  In the meantime, I will try eating better.  One way I believe to start is drinking water instead of soda.  Another way is to eat fruit and salad during the day.  I really want to be healthy and I've probably made this resolution every year, so instead of making a big deal out of it I will take it one day at a time and see where it goes.

Step Up

So, I went for my walk last night in the freezing cold with my boyfriend.  Only did one lap, but we decided to try running the last of the way home.  I actually ran!  What was more suprising is he told me I had good form.  Whaaaaa?  The girl who got made fun of in elementary school for being 'twinkle toes' and middle school for running crooked has good form now?  Who would have thought that?  I was pretty excited to hear I had good form.  Must be the shoes. I was also surprised at the fact that I was under-winded.  I thought I'd be huffing and puffing my way in the door, with my saliva hitting the ground and my body dying to lay down BUT I WASNT.  Light huffing, puffing and I actually felt great.  Crazy.  Maybe I AM fit to be a runner after all.  We'll see. :)
