I just bought myself a new pair of running shoes. I got inspired by watching the women's olympic triathlon on Sunday night. So, Monday evening, I bought myself a pair of running shoes. The salesperson almost giggled about my being inspired by the Olympics - but if it inspires me to get healthy, what does it matter?
Tuesday evening, I did my first running session - I'm gearing to do an 8k at the Royal Victoria Marathon - so I have 6 weeks to get ready, and with the bootcamp sessions from the summer, I think this should be no problem. Although, I likely need something to chase. I always hated running, except when I played soccer, I could play a full game and not even care...yesterday's run was with the lil k on his Skuut bike. What a hoot! I didn't even bother to do the run/walk, I just kept playing cat & mouse with the little guy on his bike - he had a blast, so did I, plus I fit in a workout without taking time away from him or my work!
Tonight I did my crosstraining on the Nordic Track while the lil k settled down for bed and listened to the swish swish of my workout and pretending he was driving in the rain with windshield wipers...
I should have realized a long time ago that Balance for me, is saving time by multi-tasking his play with my workouts!!!
Now if only I could find a way to knit while working...
