Day one

Today I started my journey toward running a 5k. For the most part, I did great; and that's what I'll be telling everybody. But I need a place to be completely honest, and since Julia is the only one that reads this blog, and I feel Julia wont judge me, this is going to be that place.

Today started out rough. I have a hard enough time getting up early when I have to get to work, let alone on a freaking Saturday, but I needed to. I needed to do this for myself, and this was the only time today that I knew that I was going to have time. So I got up, I stretched, and I loaded my ipod with the training program and away I went.

It started with a 5 minute brisk walk. Easy! Then a two minute jog, not too bad. And then I threw up a little. What?! But I kept going. I did the other 3 jogs and finished with the five minute brisk walk. I was tired. But I did it. And I'm a little worried about my knee, it started to hurt. But I'm going to keep going. Day one, week one, check. Monday, will be day two. Tomorrow I'm going to go for a long walk. I need to get my stamina up. My muscles didn't even get the chance to get sore, my breathing always got in the way. Change is comin'.
