Day One

   Woohoo!  I feel pumped! I bought my new crazy shoes for jogging. They don't seem to have plain white shoes at Footlocker anymore. I blame the Lakers for that. I love you, Lakers, but the shoes are getting crazy. I also bought an ishuffle. (my first mp3 player! I am sooooo high tech)
   Alan took the kids to school and I got ready. I went to get my ishuffle. Wait I have to charge this??? Ooops well, I guess I will use it tomorrow. Went walking and circuit trained with some jogging. Now I have to share something with you. I stopped jogging when I was younger for 2 reasons. #1-my knees started hurting. Luckily my Laker shoes did the job and my knees are fine. #2-every day I walked some guy would stop his car and hit on me when I was alone. It got pretty scary. I kind of figured that wouldn't happen today. I am much older and honestly look at this picture. I look pretty bad but low and behold some guy started yelling  out his window at me as he is coming up from behind me. It wasn't until I got home that I noticed what was written on the back of my shirt practically begging for a response from the cars around me. Hilarious. I will have to thank Amy for this awesome shirt.


    In the end I walk/jogged for 45 minutes which I think is pretty good for the first day and I hope doesn't do me in for the second. Hopefully I can convince my friends to come jog with me. :)

  3. This is an awesome way to write down your journey, I love it! I did my first 4 mile run here in AZ almost 2 years ago and I hadn't run since high school! The key really is good music and good shoes so yah for you! After that I kept doing little runs and then attempted a huge goal to do PF Chang's 1/2 marathon and I have to say I did it so I have total faith in you and LOVE the shirt...LOLOL! You rock! I can't wait to read your adventures :)
