Day 6: Well I almost fell off the wagon again already. Busy day at work, and booked with kid school stuff all evening. And I am not at all motivated because moving my legs is hard. I was minimizing trips from my desk to the bathroom all day to avoid having to stand up from my chair. But hey, if I don't run, I can't blog.
So I skipped a relatively unimportant meeting at two o'clock and sneaked over to the gym to try to get in my three miles on the treadmill before a more important meeting at three. But at least I had new running shorts that covered my huge ass! Also, I remembered my iPOD. Still took a half hour on the treadmill to get through 3 miles. At this rate, it will be a month before I can hit that 8 minute pace again.
Set on random shuffle, my "cross-fade of the day" was when Lucretia McEvil from Blood Sweat and Tears faded into the Blackeyed Peas' Boom Boom Pow. 7 solid minutes of surprisingly motivating beat despite the anachronism.
Went back to my desk, ate an apple, and was ready for my next meeting. Yes, that is correct, I actually ate a piece of fruit. Probably my first one since I started this program. See, getting healthier already! Washed it down with what was left of my extra large Diet Pepsi from my lunch at Taco Bell.
