First Run

I bought a new pair of Nike Air Pegasus shoes on Saturday and went out on my 4-mile route yesterday. I am out of shape but the shoes felt good except for my normal bunion break-in points an a little rubbing on my little toe on my right foot.  I could not finish 1 mile. My out of shape conditioning seems to be getting worse with age as is to be expected.  i probably ran 2 of the 4 miles.  I'll take it though.  Out again today.  

2009 Already!

Okay,

I totally missed the second half of 2008.  It is 2009 already and I'm at the same point I was last April.  Well, to catch up, I was able to run my marathon. I ran for almost 23 miles before I really bonked. I had to walk and "almost run" the last 3 miles.  I finished though which was a relief.  After the marathon, I stopped running for some odd reason and really haven't been able to get back in gear.  I ran the Race for the Cure in January and that's about the last time I really ran.

I now find myself at the same point as last April: overweight and unmotivated.  I need another goal.  Maybe the goal is to write everyday. That it itself proved to be impossible for me last year. Why is that? I'm on the computer all the time. I only need a few minutes to blog.  I gotta figure this out.  Maybe I have nothing to blog about?  Just saying.
