Does it make you sick to see/hear that word?
It makes me ill.
I don't like to run. One might say that it is something I hate. Right up there with jeans and deployments.
"But Kristin, you played soccer, like, forever!"
Yes, yes I did. That doesn't mean I liked the running part. When you're a kid, you're more or less in good running shape. So if you keep playing, you don't really have time to get "out of shape".
I ran a 7 minute mile in high school. I don't think Scott believes me on that one. (He runs something ridiculous, like a 10 minute 2-mile [okay, that could be wrong, so don't quote me]).
When people say they are going for a run, I want to ask why. Walks are so much more enjoyable. Apparently, according to the nutritional/fitness expert who is my husband (they need a sarcasm font here), walking burns fat while running burns carbs.
Um, I want to burn both??
So I'm never sure if I should feel bad that I'm walking instead of running and I'm really not living up to my fitness capability.
I feel that some bodies were not designed to run and be jostled and I have one of those bodies. I do have runners' legs, but my lungs were not made for such exertion without sucking the Albuterol out of my
I can make it about half a mile these days...s.l.o.w.l.y.
SO! I have a resolution. I'm going to break down and buy sneakers that won't kill my feet. Then I'm going to run. I'm going to run that loop every darn day until I can go farther and farther.
Asics?? Adidas?? I don't even know where to start.
I've had bad experiences with New Balance and Nike. (think blisters)
Why are sneakers so expensive???
