I honestly don' t know how many people are reading this blog here of mine, but if you are I hope you understand my struggles and my pain and know that you are not alone in the world....
So if you are wondering why I am excited let me tell you... Today I did something that I hadn't done since highschool days.
Duh, dun, dun.... that's my drum roll....lol
I jogged for 10 solid minutes on the treadmill and went about 3/4 of a mile. I know this doesn't seem like a lot but it truly is. Every time in the past that I had attempted to jog for more than 1 minute at a crack didn't happen. I have been trying to build up my cardio since this summer and have been running in minute increments while walking and had made it too 2 1/2 minutes before... but never, NEVER 10.... I am so totally excited... can you tell...This is a huge accomplishement for me. I am not gonna lie honestly my legs felt like they would collapse and my lungs never felt like I couldn't breathe (which was awesome)... I thought i might actually spit out the back of the treadmill if I didn't go back to high speed walking....lmao... don't
I have been comtemplating how people run marathons.. I mean really how can you run that long and that far.. it is amazing to me. I think I'd like to know what there legs feel like. I will say I admire their drive and determination. It is completely all mind over matter. And I DID IT!!!!!
I know I will be walking tomorrow... we will see if I am up to the run/jog again.....
Off to bed for me just had to share the news......
