Back in the saddle again.

I am so proud of myself today. This morning I had the slight desire to work out so I decided to go for a run outside. I am still excited about all of the songs I have on my mp3 player. Normally I suck at running outside the last time I ran was like a week ago and I did 2 miles and when I got home I had to stay on the front porch for a 1/2 hour because I thought I was going to vomit. So I try to stick to the treadmil since I have a big plastic belt forcing me to keep moving forward. Anyhoo- I thought I'd give it another try since our race is outside so I knew I'd have to get used to it eventually. So I got on my lame jazzersize out fit- (more to follow with this later....) and went with the intention of going 2 miles again only this time feeling slightly less nautious afterwards. And as I was running the wind stopped and the clouds kind of went away and I was really enjoying myself and I ended up running 5 and 1/2 miles!!!! It is 1 1/2 miles round trip to the park by our house and there is an exact 1 mile loop through the park and I ran it 4 times! AND here is the kicker... I felt great afterwards no gross feelings at all just a little wobbly legs. It was so exilerating.

NOW.... I looked like a total dork doing it though. I need to get some new workout clothes. I am wearing my mom's hand me down stuff right now...I was wearing black spandex shorts with a white sripe down the side and a white tight long sleeved shirt witha black tshirt on top and a black headband to cover my ears-- I have horrible ears the slightest wind and I get an instant ear ache. Anyway lets just say when Cydi Lauper came on my radio it was fitting.
