Thank You

I am really glad that I made the decision to start this blog.  If I hadn't then the mood I was in yesterday may have affected me more than it did.  With this blog I was able to write and share what I was feeling which made me feel a lot better and allowed me to get out of my funk a lot quicker.  I want to say thank you for all of your comments, they were all encouraging and I had a smile on my face when I left for work this morning :-)!

I did run today and felt great about it.  This week is going to have to be a treadmill week for me.  The BF is out of town for work and  I am starting a new job so the treadmill is more convenient right now (come on snow...MELT!).  I was a little nervous about my run since I hadn't exercised in three days but I got on the treadmill and got my first mile in without stopping - YAY :-)!  For my second mile I had to take two 30 second rests but I didn't walk at all, I even averaged 13:20/mile which is actually about 40-50 seconds faster then the last time I was on the treadmill.  It was weird, my legs actually felt better when I ran a little faster and seemed to tighten up if I tried to slow it down.  Overall it was a great workout and I feel like I am back on track with everything.  Thanks again for your support and I am looking forward to a good week.
