Great quote..

   I saw this quote while driving yesterday, and had to get a shot of it before I forgot it. I was on my way home-ish from the gym, and it just struck me as sooo inspiring. And while it's a shitty picture, it's still a great quote, imo.

I had an epiphany of sorts while on the treadmill before our vacation, and it's made running a lot 'easier'. I was holding on to the treadmill for dear freaking life, and it just about killed me to get through 1 minute of running. So once I realized that's what i was doing, I relaxed my whole body, and it was just *easier* to run. The last few times I've been out, I try and keep conscious of the fact I need to be relaxed to run, and I think it's really helping.  I'm working on week 2 of c25k now, and i really felt good while running today. I even upped my speed a tad. Not saying I wasn't totally bagged by the end of the half hour walk-run cycle, but still. But hey, I ran, and hubs was on the couch. Feels good to be the one lapping someone for a change!
