I remember that same run when I was maybe 12-15. I hated Friday's. That was the day, I was
humiliated too. I decided it was easier to become one of the smokers and then I could accept
the fact that it was my lungs giving me trouble, not my weight. Plus, I felt like I fit in somewhere
with the smokers. What a trade off huh ?? What goes through the minds of young people.
BUT, for you and for all of us who were not able to accomplish this at another time in our life,
we can do it now. I think we are strong now, we dont give up as easily. We have something
to fight for.
congrats to you. I too RAN for the first time at the age of 34 when I met my husband. He
was a runner. I had never run over a minute. He taught me how. Slowly. He told me, we
weren't racing -- we were just walking fast and enjoying the time. Before you know it we
were comfortably jogging together. I got such a high !! The best thing I ever inhaled !!

That guy was awesome. I always think things like that when I see people really trying in their workouts, but I'm too shy to approach them. I bet he made your whole week!0 -
