Need courage to restart!

Day 3...

I want to do this!!

OK, lace up the squeaky sneakers (and just why do they start to squeak? I went outside before I bought them to make sure they dont squeak - omg they squeak SO LOUD now!! )

Look at the clock. Remeber Galloway. Start my ipod down a bit so I dont listen to the same tunes in the same order... and I want to dance to the music (Off Kilter Run Run Away!!) I have to ignore that I am being passed by walkers... and remember Galloway - keep moving... how did a rubber band get INSIDE MY SHOE? Have mercy!

Shania Twain: UP
It's 'bout as bad as it could be
Seems everybody's buggin' me
Like nothing wants to go my way--
yeah, it just ain't been my day
Nothin's comin' easily

Even my skin is acting weird
I wish that I could grow a beard
Then I could cover up my spots
not play connect the dots
I just wanna disappear

[Chorus:]
Up--up--up--
Can only go up from here
Up--up--up--Up
where the clouds gonna clear
Up--up--up--
There's no way but up from here

Even something as simple as
Forgettin' to fill up on gas
There ain't no explanation why--
things like that can make you cry
Just gotta learn to have a laugh

45 minutes. Mission accomplished.

Going to take a shower, and a nap!

well I havent really been hiding, but I've not been following the training schedule very well either!

Went on a mini vacation to visit my parents - and finally bit the bullet and yesterday did a wog up to Michigan and back! (they live in the NE corner of IN - half of their lake is in Michigan, the other is IN) I ran 2 miles!

Not sure if anyone has vertigo - and I"m not sure if I get vertigo more often when I'm close to having a panic attack, or if I have a panic attack because of vertigo?! DH thinks I need to get a hat that is like a racing horses glasses - to cut down on my peripheal vision! But somehow I was able to overcome my fear and NOT get dizzy, not have a panic attack!

I did go very slow the last half mile, and I did get in 2 miles - but more than anything I have to get control and lose the extra 30 or 40#!

The weather finally cooled - and there seems to be a break in the rain - guess I'll take the high road!

John Bingham:

For better or worse, you are the only you that you will ever get. What you decide to do with you is up to you. Tomorrow you will still be you. The question is whether you will move closer today to who you want to be.

If you are patient, if you are persistent, if you are consistent, an amazing transformation will begin to occur. Your wonderfully adaptive body will begin to cooperate. It will happen in your own time and at your own pace, to be sure, but the transformation will take place.

SAndy - My mom gets vertigo. Don't knwo fi it's tress related or not. DOesn't seem like it helps. She swears by dramamine. Have you thought of taking the non-drowsy version before running. What? You ran all teh way to MI and didn't comes say hi???

Much better today - I wanted to do it - and do it better!

It worked - I did the same run (up to Michigan ) and I had a much better wog!! I've decided it was more the heat and humidity and the hot sun yesterday! (*doh) and when I got distracted, I went south mentally!

Carrie Dramamine (esp non drowsy) does work - I forget I keep that with me!! (not on runs tho!)

another day done! another day closer to Disney!!
