I went for another walk/run combination last night. I think this might be a record. I admit that I liked the 30 "extra" seconds of walking that I missed out on the other day. Why is it that the runs always seemed to be on the uphill? I couldn't time it differently even if I tried. I'm lucky that I can determine 60 and 90 seconds (thanks ipod) let alone timing a run to walk uphill and run down. It might be strange to say but I felt accomplished, invigorated when I got home. That's motivation right there. Plus my legs don't ache nearly as much today as they have over the past two days. It's the little things, people; little victories. I'll take whatever ones I can get.

Running is real and relatively simple…but it ain't easy.
