Running!!!

Well, I went running with Russ and Dallin tonight. The run was about 1 3/4 miles. I ran most of it. I stopped to walk three times. Russ estimates that total I walked just about 1/4 mile of the run. That means I ran about a mile and half. Remember, in the Terrace some of that run is uphill. Other that the burning in my ears from cold wind, my chest on fire from lack of oxygen, side stitches from the running, and the urge to throw up, I feel great :) We are supposed to go again on Friday. Why is it I agreed to this? I'm never watching The Biggest Loser again. It gets dumb ideas in my head, like I want to become a runner.

Congrats,
I sometimes watch Biggest Loser while eating ice cream. Its better to watch it at the begining of the season while they are all still bigger, not the finale when they are all skinny. Did you see Ali, I can't believe how toned she got. Crap now I need to go exercise.

yeah-i think the show really is inspiring people to get up and start moving. And like angie-i watched the finale while stuffing my face with icecream. but i don't worry too much about my weight yet since i have never really succeeded in losing any weight whlie nursing.

You can do it Nicole!!! Woo hoo!!! Everyone needs a little encouragement. I also need to start running now that school is over. I am always worried because I don't lead the healthiest of lifestyles, and I don't want it to catch up with me someday (i.e. heart disease). You make me want to go running right now! Good for you.
