I ran today! I ran today! Yea! I AM going to be ready for Goofy 2009....
.....no matter what.....and it starts NOW.

It was -6 when I headed out for my almost 2 mile walk to Curves this morning
2 miles back. I took the "long" way back, so I added another mile (just
under 5, total). It's an additional long straight stretch, that extra mile.
...............and I couldn't resist. I was over-dressed (really dressed
for the -6) but I couldn't hold it back. So, I ran. It wasn't far, it wasn
t fast, but I did run.

It felt great............even bundled up like an Eskimo..............looking
like the Michelin Man, I probably drew some chuckles from the cars passing
by. LOL!

I've been walking a lot (15-20 a week) and going to Curves at least 3 x a
week, but today was the first real running (albeit a little bit) I've done
since WDW. It has been a difficult winter to run in here, and it was great
to be able to feel sure footed enough to break into a run for a bit.

It has warmed up to about 20 degrees, blue sky, sunny, and calm. Beautiful.
Energizing.

Hope those of you in Ohio have been able to dig out...............

Louise
