I am giving up LAZINESS for Lent. We are not Catholic, but I really like the idea of giving up something and sticking to it. So, I am giving up laziness...I know it isn't like coffee or cussing or the occasional yelling @ the Js but it is something that I should sacrifice. Church taught me, my body is the temple of Christ, so I better start treating it that way. So...yesterday I did push-ups and crunches. A whopping 10 push-ups, but they were "manly" push-ups and I didn't stop. I did about 60 different kinds of crunches. Small little steps, but I gotta start slow.
Today I walked the little J and B to school. Then I grabbed my tunes and began to walk. I told myself I would do my best to run too. So, hence the gasp. Sheesh I am out of shape. But I did run about 1/2 of the 22 minutes. I am going to drive the loop and see exactly how long it was...please let it be at least 1 mile. baby steps, baby steps.
I admire my friends that run in races. So, instead of watching them on the sidelines, I hope I can eventually work up to walking behind them! They have much nicer asses than me!
You have a smokin' ass.
ReplyDeleteAnd, you know I run in races. But, have you seen me actually RUN? It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. There's no shame in run-walking . . . it's getting out there that counts.
I'm signing you up for my next 5K . . .
PS. I'm proud of you . . .
