Run!

Guess what!

I ran yesterday! For the first time in over a YEAR! A mile and a half! It about killed me! But it was awesome!

Just wanted to let ya'll know, because I'm super excited to continue running this year and for the rest of my life.

Its not a New Years Resolution: its a "Wow I've gained alot of weight and I'm tired of feeling pudgy and sluggish". When something is wrong, you should change, not wait till the new year to "be a new you".

Be a new you... now! Or, at least try. I have a list of things that need improvement, everyone does. And it would be a full time job addressing every thing at once. But little by little, improvement comes. Lap by lap, I did an 11 min mile.

Here's my plan of attack: 
1. Make time to run- write it in my planner to ensure that I do
2. Self- inspire: use Pinterest, envision what I want to look like in a few weeks time, set attainable goals (when I reach them, it will inspire me even more!) Keep it on my mind! 
3. Keep myself "clean": eating better will make me feel better, which will make it easier to get up and go run and it will further my weight loss! 
4. Get help: keep Jeffrey on my back about, to keep me accountable

I got a lot of these ideas from Pinterest and some self-experience. I have always loved running but I think fear of failing has kept me from picking it back up. 

But fear will no longer keep me on the couch!!!!! 

What inspires you to better yourself? How do you keep yourself on track?

What is holding you back? How can you overcome those fears? 

1 Corinthians 9:24
Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.
