Your mind will quit long before your body will!
I repeat that quote over and over again each day. I just finished Week 5 day 3 of C25k. That's right, today I ran 20 minutes without stopping! When I first started, I could BARELY jog for 30 seconds. Today I started to defeat myself before I even began running. I thought surely I cannot run for 20 minutes. There is no way.…

Then there are the birthday cake and ice cream days, all the time. It would be considered very rude for me not to attend these…
