Da Na Na, Da Na Na,..

I ain't no Rocky Balboa (thank God!), but I got me a victory to chant about. You remember that silly little incline I posted about here awhile back, you know, the one that's at the end of my walks?

Yeah, this one. Well, yesterday as I turned the corner to walk up it, tired as I was, something just came over me. I looked around right quick (I've never done this in public before so I was kinda shy a bout it), and then I RAN, yes RAN, right up that puppy! Yahoo! Did that ever feel good! About halfway up I didn't care who might be watching- I was winning this round! "Punching" all the way! Now, I'll admit when I got to the top I was out of breath big time- but cool as a cucumber, I slowed to a walk and acted like I always do that...and maybe I will!

Woo Hoo!! Great job. Get use to people looking when you run, but they're really just jealous ;)

Thanks Kathy! Yeah, I'll have to nix the shyness if I'm ever going to run outside instead of hiding on the treadmill. That, and a cute running skirt would help too!
