I feel like Wonder~Woman!!!!!! I run, I like to run outside, I have three kids that I cannot take with me when I run. Therefore weekends and vacations I don't accomplish very much exercise. HOWEVER, I DO have a dusty treadmill in the basement that I had made too many excuses not to use. TODAY WAS THE DAY!!!!!!!! I actually accomplished my regular run on the treadmill, burned over 800 calories and the kids DID NOT burn the house down while I was downstairs! This was a HUGE hurdle in my mind and feel AMAZING!!! (Endorphins are AWESOME!!! :) Sorry, but felt the need to toot my horn a little, hopefully someone else reads this that has had the same hangup, and overcomes it. Keep on Running!!!

    Good Goin!!!!! I am glad to hear you have prevailed over your dungeon/treadmill situation. I just recently bought a new treadmill and am amazed at how far I have come. Now warming up at my previous highest speed rate and yesterday I actually ran for 20 minutes...it is indeed amazing what you can do if you really WANT to. I keep mine in the tv area tho, right in sight all the time. I do love the big ugly thing.:bigsmile:

    Keep on Running!!!!
