I guess the endorphin rush is the same wherever I run, though.

They're everywhere... just right outside... but I don't jog them as much as I could. I know I'd feel tons better if I did. Weather has been a factor. It's cooling off some, which is nice. Hard to jog in 80 or 90 heat. And I can't wait to feel those endorphins kick in again!Sugar Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14350485179045324078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32283188.post-20727484253044772112008-09-26T20:58:00.000-04:002008-09-26T20:58:00.000-04:00to paraphrase a line from forrest gump...."run, am...to paraphrase a line from forrest gump....<BR/><BR/>"run, ami, run"nejyerfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308206206752686464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32283188.post-83855638910107790882008-09-26T14:43:00.000-04:002008-09-26T14:43:00.000-04:00I used to run regularly, but then some health prob...I used to run regularly, but then some health problems, a nasty stomach flu and a knee injury sidelined me and I never got back into it. And now my kids are huge and I can barely push the jogger with them in it, much less run with it. I decided to go out last night in the rain while my H put the kids to bed. I ran as far as I could before stopping and walking to catch my breath. I did that over and over until I reached my goal spot and then I walked home. Let me tell you, it felt good! I'm going to try again for tonight. Good luck to you!Kayrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15397302130308197831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32283188.post-51585548859092981602008-09-24T12:53:00.000-04:002008-09-24T12:53:00.000-04:00Thanks, Erin.

This gives me hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel and reminds me that I can start slowly and still reach my goal.Amihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04132594195395924087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32283188.post-57002878476441882322008-09-24T01:06:00.000-04:002008-09-24T01:06:00.000-04:00First of all, can I say I'm so proud of you.

You know, I hated running/jogging with a passion because I couldn't make further than from my house to my neighbors driveway without busting a lung. When I started "learning" how to jog last year I think I started with jogging 30 sec/walking 5 minutes. It felt retarded, but it worked. And today I ran my first 2 1/2 miles of the year. I'm so pumped. I've finally reached my goal of being one of those people who can just run. : ) Keep it up. I can't wait until you reach your goal!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32283188.post-91780946135044019382008-09-22T14:35:00.000-04:002008-09-22T14:35:00.000-04:00Angie - Me, too.

You realize you really do hate it and you do something else instead. Can't hurt, right?<BR/><BR/>34 Years - I have my moments of jogging hate, and the hate may win out in the end. But I've never given it a fair try and I really think it deserves that. As for the intervals, I like them, too, so I may end up staying there for a while. I've found that when I'm doing longer periods of jogging once I get past the first couple of minutes, I don't feel like time is going by so slowly anymore. As cliche as it sounds, I kind of get into a zone and it's not so hard for a while.Amihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04132594195395924087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32283188.post-40692285483507774212008-09-22T12:47:00.000-04:002008-09-22T12:47:00.000-04:00Lord, I HATE jogging.
