No Pain...Well You Know

Well this is what my shirt looked like after my first day of working out. I cant believe I have been making this sweat mark for over a month already. Running everyday has totally been a huge challenge for me. I Have built endurance but I still get whooped by my wife whenever we jog together.

If you don't jog with your spouse I really recommend it. Running has brought Pris and I closer together. I don't really know why other than we are both going through the pain together.

Another bonus to running together means that the kids come along with us. We switch pushing the stroller about half way through our loop. For them to see us exercise (I believe) has been one of the greatest lessons we have taught them lately.

I hope that this running and exercising doesn't end when winter hits. That really worries me. But I guess the only person in control of making it happen or not is...well...me!

By the way I run really slow. If you are just beggining to run don't worry about speed or distance just be consistent. Run every day with giving yourself a days rest. Like I said I don't run really fast or far but I have been fairly consistent and it has paid off. Good luck and God bless.

I think it's great you and Priscilla are doing this together. A good way to encourage each other to push on. Keep it up, you're both looking good. :)

Remember that line above about hoping it doesn't end when winter hits? winter's not over so we still have a chance...
