the first mile always hurts…

so today I laced up and ran.

how could I not – the weather in Sydney has just been gorgeous and it would have been crazy of me to head to the gym and run on a treadmill.  So I got my husband out of bed and we both went for a run.

It’s been a while since I last ran and so that first mile hurt.  And I mean everything hurt.  my knees, my toes, my thighs…..my head!! (LOL).  just kidding!

But I always find that first mile to hurt the most and because I know now that they are not serious ‘hurts’  I push through ….and thankfully I do cause if I didn’t I would have come back to the hotel and just quit! 

Every mile after that first one hurts felt  better…..we went on to do 6!  22 more miles to go for my challenge!!

#determined!!

Welcome to February

wow how time is passing by.

Hard to believe that we are already in Feb.  well we have been busy and right now we’ve travelled again and are in Sydney.  I don’t enjoy this kind of travelling much cause we come with 5 passengers and return with 4.

It’s always difficult but we try to remain positive and look at this separation in 10 week increments.

So it’s the beginning of another month, and it’s healthy heart month. 

I’ll be joining the PE guy who is the PE teacher for  my kids school  and doing the challenge – 28 miles in 28 days.  You can walk or run or do both.

either way, I want to throw out the challenge to just get moving!

hoping you join me and the rest of the kids!
