Zombies, Run!



I am assuming that if anyone is reading my blog that they know by now that I HATE running.  Well, I just found a new app called "Zombies, Run!".  This app is an interactive game that is supposed to simulate you (the runner) running the streets, gathering supplies in order to save your town from the zombies all while being chased by them.  Did I explain it right?  I'm not sure, but it has a website if you want to look it up.  I haven't tried it yet but I am actually looking forward to running tonight.

Out of bed and on the road


After being at home for a week with the flu I decided to try my first workout in a long time.  I thought I would ease into it and decided to go for a run.  If I just can’t handle it I can always walk right?  (I really mostly walk anyway.)  I started out on a walk, but realized that after about a half a mile I felt really good.  I thought that I would try a run.  I told myself that I would run to that telephone pole up ahead.  I got there and felt good and ran to the street sigh a block ahead of that.  I then alternated walking and running for a total of three miles.  Now that I managed that I have no excuse to not workout tomorrow, bummer.  It was so easy falling into the excuse pit. 

Now I put it out there.  I’ve got to stay out of the pit and get on the road.  Once I put it in writing for others to read I feel I’ll be held more accountable.
