About me: I'm a single homeschooling mom of an 11-year-old boy. I enjoy reading and belong to http://www.bookcrossing.com . I also taught myself how to knit, and I spend a lot of time on the Internet. I have been working on my fitness since the second week of January, 2008, and am improving in leaps and bounds! (No pun intended.) |
Why do I run: For fitness, because I want to get better at it, because I want to finish a 5K race this summer! |
Why I started running: Back when I was in high school, I was the anti-athlete, picked last every time. My phy. ed. grades were abysmal and my teacher felt bad for me, so she said that I could do laps for extra credit. I found that I actually enjoyed running, but I never did it beyond that period in high school. I now feel that if I work into it slowly, I can come to love running again. |
