Friday success!

#1 (**permalink**) 01-26-2007, 04:04 PM

Today was a gorgeous, beautiful day in Portland....50 degrees, sunny, breezy. My manager at work was feeling generous and so gave me the afternoon off, and I came home intending to go for a nice afternoon run. When I got home, things started to drag me in....I wanted to clean the kitchen....watch TV...curl up with a book. I had a HUGE inner struggle and finally realized that if I didn't go for a run I would feel like I had really given up, so I tied my shoes on and went for it! I did about five miles, and it was BEAUTIFUL! This wasn't even one of my planned workouts this week - this will put me over my goal of four times per week. This will definitely be very helpful in offsetting some of my calories at the Greek restaurant tonight!
Anyway, just wanted to share my personal success - it felt GREAT to push through my mental resistance and get the job done!
