Trying Something New

I have never ran outside in the winter before and I almost feel as if I am being called to do so. The weather here in Illinois has been extreme, leaving very little opportunity for a new runner (me) to feel comfortable enough to get out there. However, today and tomorrow are supposed to warmer days and I want to try the outdoor running thing. It would be nice if I had someone to run with me, but again I have to be my own motivation in times like this. :-)  If it happens, I'll write about it. If I don't write about it, it didn't happen. Doesn't mean it won't, just means I wasn't ready..... And that's okay.

Today's challenge: Pump it up a little. Go longer and harder in your workout to give your body the shock it needs to continue on the road to meeting your health and fitness goals.
