Training Day

In my latest effort to get the training regimine of Motown Runner Girl, I have started running again. Myself and three (sometimes two) other people get together on the weekends and run around this park until we, or I, collaspe. Yesterday was one of those days.

Our fearless leader, Katie, took us for a run at a park that's different than the one we usually workout at. This new park had hills that felt like mountains. There were only three of us yesterday, which sucked for me. The other guy who usually comes is in worse shape than I am, so it's good to have at least one person in the back when we're trekking to the forest. Without him yesterday, I started out good than had to sputter in the back by myself. No fun!!

Unlike Motown Runner Girl, I'm not planning to do any marathons anytime soon. I'm just trying to find something that I enjoy that keeps the calories off. So far, this is working. Wish me luck!

Um...running's cool and all, but if you're not planning to do a marathon, why torture yourself? Horrible for the knees! May I suggest vigorous sex?! Burns many calories and is much more enjoyable than running. :)

LMAO!!
I thought about the vigorous sex, but I'd need to have a partner for that. Maybe running is a substitute for it. A sad substitute, but one just the same!
