This was another hard one for me.
The kiddo started first grade this year -- and is now at school for a full day. This is a big change for her. She is tired in the afternoon and doesn't have as much "play" time as she did.
It's also a change for me. I now have almost seven hours to myself every day. What to do with all that time?
My mother said she would clean the house. I seriously thought she was kidding. Clean the house? Maybe for an hour, but not all day.
I tried sitting around all day and beading or watching tv, but that gets boring in a hurry.
Finally, I decided to try something new -- running.
So, I always said that "I don't run." What I really meant was, "I don't like to run because I can't run for more than a few seconds." I have allergies and asthma, neither of which is conducive to running long distances.
I started reading about Zombies, Run! and thought, "this might be fun." I downloaded the 5k training app and went for a
I was a bit discouraged that first day, but I am getting better and can run for almost 3 minutes without stopping!
More than that, though, I am looking forward to getting outside and running a bit. This might have more to do with me wanting to play more missions on the app, but, hey, anything that works, right?
