Almost two years ago, I started working out on an almost daily basis. I bring my computer downstairs and either watch something off of Netflix, or a DVD. I walk at a very rapid pace, sometimes at an incline. I have lost 25 lbs doing this.
Just recently, I have actually been able to get up to a run instead of walking. Go me! I did it for the first time the other day for 15 straight minutes in the middle of my workout, just to see if I could do it. And I did! Yesterday, I did 23 minutes straight after walking for 20 and could have kept going but didn't want to overdo it. Today, I intermittently walked and ran for 50 minutes while watching The Tudors and I have to say, I love it. I never thought I would be able to run for any amount of time, but I have actually achieved it.
Now, I just have to find a babysitter out here so that I can start running 5k's with Todd.
So, yes, it's a shameless brag, but a huge personal achievement for me.:)
