Run Forrest Run!

So, a funny thing happened on thursday when babe & i were out for our walk... i got it in my head that i was going to run a bit, so i did! about a whole 100m, but still. it's a start. and y'know, it felt pretty good!

So then, during Friday's walk, I ran a bit more (4 stints, abt 340m in total - walk was almost 4km).

We went to j's parents yesterday, so i didn't go for a walk, but tonight after we got home & unpacked & babe was sleeping & my blog post for tomorrow's blog hop was done, i had this little niggling to go for a "wrun" (a walk that includes little runs interspersed. yes, it's a chelle-ism :)) so i did! i'm not sure how much of my approx 2k wrun was run v walk - probably abt 300ish mtrs again - but it felt pretty good to get out. it was a lovely night for a wrun... a bit overcast tho, so gps didn't accurately track. ah well.

if i'm going to get serious i need a good pair of runners, some reflective gear & a good sports bra (maybe even a new-to-me jogging stroller??) but for now, i'm enjoying just getting out & doing what i can. i've wanted to learn to run forever. now i'm finally doing something about it.

********

kinda unrelated, but i totally noticed at the ILs today that i've lost inches around me midsection. still many to go, but yay! i might actually take measurements on wed (weigh day) & then again with each visit to nutritionist. we'll see tho.
