This month I increased my ability to run further, longer, more often, and am running out of breath less often. Oh and my feet are still yucky. Tee hee.

Final count on the Calendar of Progress:

1. I did sit ups and push ups instead of weights for the entire month. I lost over one pound, and assume it’s muscle mass, maybe a little itty bitty fat. Losing fat is going to be slower and slower going for these last one or two pounds.
2. I managed to run a longer route, putting me over 5 miles a day.
3. I drank like one or two drinks ever if we went out, except one night. That one is fairly common now.

I’m working on getting better at stretching before my runs, since the walking a block or two isn’t cutting it as a warm up. My legs have been extremely sore more often, and that’s a warning sign to me that I’m doing something wrong. I wish wish WISH that there were good classes at the gym here, I’m missing that the most out of anything. I saw people at Gas Works Park working out, but haven’t found any information on anyone doing anything I could get involved in. Not happy ’bout that!
