So I’ve started this whole running thing.  Because I need another hobby.  Hey, at least this one is healthy!

I have this idea in my head that I’m going to run on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays.  Then on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday i’m gong to walk and do strength training.  So today I was so NOT in the mood to run after work.  I was tired, hungry…I just wanted to go home and veg out!  Well I was having a conversation with a co-worker about how I read that even if you only do 5 or 10 minutes on the days you are supposed to work out, it’s better than nothing.  Its’ all about getting out and keeping with a schedule.  So I figured FINE! I’ll go and just do like 10 minutes.  Well….it ended up turning into the 30 minutes I usually do, and actually had a better time than I did on Tuesday.  Who knew.  Maybe there is something to this craziness!

This is also day two using my new Garmin 110.  Tuesday it did great.  Today….thing was trippin!  we’ll see what happens on Saturday (the 5k!).  Maybe I started it before the satellites were in place.  I’m pretty sure it was human error….

Had my pre-op call with the nurse today.  Wow.  I understand that they have to ask you all these questions for the anesthesia but…it’s just sooooo painful!

My son is down in Texas for his father’s wedding.  I really hope he has a good time.  They all think I’m some mean person about this, but they don’t quite understand that I truly want them to have a good relationship.  Maybe with this wife he will be able to do that better.

I keep thinking to myself that everything happens for a reason.  You can either fight it, or roll with it.  And usually when you roll with it the outcome is much better.  I’ll save my philosophical thoughts for another post.
