I started jogging today! I have been wanting to do this for months and today I finally did it. I have been looking up "learning to jog/run programs" and even had one bookmarked for the longest time. Today at camp I picked up a pedometer to try and do at least 5000 steps a day, well I did 7503 after my jog.
So, this is how I did it. I started out of the driveway at a quick pace and The Kinks playing in my ear. Midway down the block I started a jog and continued. I would say I did half jogging and half quick paced walking. Now the program called for 20 minutes of quick walking but I broke it up today. I did 10-15 of walking and jogging. Tomorrow I will do quick paced walking. I am very excited to do this. I was very hot when I came back so I had a cool shower with some awesome sugar scrub from Bath and Body Works. I feel invigorated!
Here's to tomorrow!
I am so proud of you! Yay!!! Doesn't it just pump you up and get you excited to do more? In spite of the heat or any sore muscles, it still makes a person feel great by getting outdoors and walking or running! I hope you continue to enjoy it...it really is a great way to have some "me" time, too. So proud of you!

I am so proud of you as running is certainly something I am not capable of doing... Bravo!
