I am still getting out and getting my miles done, but 500 seems like an awful lot of miles and my tiny amounts added each day seems like I am getting nowhere... fast.
I keep having days where I absolutely do not want to walk. My toes still hurt in my shoes, my knee aches but it isn't anything that Ibuprofen can't take care of. It is cold out so even going to the treadmill seems like a chore - getting bundled up and taking my butt there, to sweat and then walk back home in the cold.
Yet, I keep walking.
My husband pushes me even if he doesn't know it. He is the competitive sort, and I guess some of that has rubbed off on me. I know for a fact that he will accomplish his 500 before I do. He is running his while I am merely walking. Well, to be fair, the treadmill has me running but I am sure if I were to run on ground it would be completely different. Right now I am still ahead of him in miles to date. What a giant pain it is though, that we share the Nike+ shoe pod.
Today it was freezing out. I mean 33 degrees with the windchill of 26! But I made myself go. And I stopped and had a bit of social time with Kat at the shoppette. The conversations we have are hilarious! But then I left and took my butt to the treadmill, like a good girl. Blech.
I wish it would warm up so that I can wear some good loose clothing and not have to worry about all the heavy clothes. And once it warms up I might actually see some pounds drop off of me - not that I need to lose much, but 5 lbs would be nice to say so long to.
Our group seems to have slowed down a bit, but I will start posting more in it, getting others back into it too hopefully. I love their comments, the motivation is amazing.
Miles To Date: 147.81
