Hello Running Shoes & Blogosphere!

I've decided to do something about my weight and start running. Seriously running that is. It's always been such a painful sport because of my somewhat rotund self and I figure if I can develop a love of running, some of that rotund self will disapear.

I can already run up to ~5 miles on a good (really good) day, so I'm not a total newbie to the sport. I would like to eventually gain enough stamina to run a half-marathon. Maybe even a full marathon someday.

Today was a good start. I hit the gym and treadmilled my way through 3 miles straight. I didn't go at a particularly fast pace, but it was steady and challenging.

Thursday's Accomplishment: 3 mile run @ 4.5mph

Friday's Goal: Weight Lifting
