Today I ran 1/4 mile. I had to stop for 30 seconds at 1/8 mile. When the 1/4 mile was done I stood there wheezing with mucus dripping from my mouth and nose and almost barfed. It was beautiful. I have mild exercise induced asthma. I don't feel unable to breathe but it's uncomfortable for a couple of minutes after I finish working out. I don't care about those people who can run 3 minute miles. I can't compare myself to them, I am only trying to improve myself. Maybe those people also work plus are trying to run their own business, have written a book and have raised a teenage son who is pretty sensible in spite of a chaotic upbringing. Maybe not. I have. I'm not trying to be "sexy" or "hot" but I would like to improve my physical appearance and health. I have neglected it for a long time.
I want to start doing aquatic workouts and swimming again. I want to start going to 24 Hour Fitness again. It costs $40 per month which is prohibitive right now.
I have decided that walking the dogs for 1 hour blocks is a bit insane. They would probably be happier with 2 30 minute walks and I would too. They're dachshunds--they have short legs!
My eating has been more in control for a few days now. This is not to say perfect. I don't know what that is. I wish I didn't think about food all the time. Being addicted to anything sucks!
