Running again!

I was keeping track of my running in March and noticed that the last time I ran was March 12.  Then I finally got to run again last night!  I made it 15 minutes running outside before stopping.  Then I had to walk a little bit.  I have decided I am going to find a 10k at the end of July and I am just going to sign up for it.  I don't care how much I have to walk.  I made a commitment to myself to do a 10k by the end of 2013 and I'm going to stick with it.  And hopefully it will also help in my quest to lose the rest of that baby weight.

Yes, it is 10 months since having a baby and I still have some of that weight.  I am totally ok with it... but I'm ok if I can lose it too.  The biggest pain is having to buy new clothes.  I am not a shopper.  And I'm having a hard time giving away the 2 boxes of clothes I hoped to fit into again.

But back to the running.  Before I gained weight with the pregnancy, I was running a) because I enjoyed it and b) so I didn't have to worry as much about what I ate.

Tonight I ran more for reason b.  I laughed at myself.  After running I came home and had a bowl of ice-cream... and a beer.  I'm just telling myself I'm still celebrating the end of my internship.

Comment if you've done anything similar... I don't think I'm alone!
