Well it's been approximately one week and during that week I only walked-ran (mostly walked) three miles. I'm only documenting, not being hard on myself. Progress is inevitable. I'm doing well with the cokes and fast food. I've been drinking lots more water, so overall things are going well.
I've been a little down lately - could be caused by a myriad of things, so I won't guess here at this one. I know what the most likely culprit(s) is/are. Allergies have been affecting me heavily, and not in the sneezy weezy area this time - it feels upper respiratory, which is making exercise difficult. Anyway, tomorrow I start the goal of jogging the whole mile. I plan to do two miles in total.
I've been getting more organized and getting to bed earlier as well. I'm in bed at 10pm tonight! Unbelievable.
I'll admit that much of this "project" is a way of dealing with some crappy stuff that's been happening lately - things that have frankly been making me feel pretty bad about myself and others. Interestingly enough, these are the same things that make it difficult to get out of bed in the morning and that try to sabotage this incredible goal. I have to keep focusing on "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Otherwise, I'll fail. He gives me strength.
Thank you to all of you who have already begun to support me in this journey. This is much bigger for me than just running. This is a transformation for me. And thank you, Jim...for helping me see how incredible I really am. :)
