Pre-jog thoughts: I was ready for the 20 minute contiuum. Jogging Monday made me feel ready to jog today. I don’t know that I can beat my old time, but I’ll give it a try.
Jog thoughts: I ran, as usual, but when my iPod friend told me I had one minute left, I felt possessed to blow her away. I picked up the pace and made my best time (and calorie count) ever. I figure if I keep jogging the same way, nothing much will change. Like the number on the scale.
Post Jog: Sucked wind. Felt good.
What I Noticed: I didn’t notice much about the jog. What I noticed came when in front of the mirror before a shower. Walking by the mirror, I caught a glimpse of something I haven’t seen in years, possibly decades: My butt. Well, allow me to clarify. I have a butt, plenty of one in fact. The square footage of my behind rivals the land holdings of some third world countries. Unlike those countries, there’s been no real deliniation between the butt & thigh.
No more unibutt! I have the slightest bit of definition on the behind that separates the two regions so they can duly be noted on the next update of the world map. Now that’s progress. I don’t care what the scale says.
First time for…actually admiring myself in a mirror. I’m not getting too carried away, but it is a nice change.
