Late last week, I found that someone on Ravelry in a running group, posted the video of Ben Davis's story. Since then, I've spent the last couple days reading his entire blog at bendoeslife.com. It's such an inspirational journey. I teared up reading several entries when he had accomplished one of his goals. It took me all weekend, but I read through the entire thing. I feel like he's the best friend I never met. lol I'm sad I found his blog after his Do Life Tour, I really would have attempted to go to one of the stops in Chicago, Minneapolis, or Omaha.
His motto throughout it all is "All you have to do is do it". Which is true, you're not going to accomplish any goals if you sit on your ass and do nothing. I'd love to be able to complete at 5K in about 30 minutes. But I know that's not going to happen my first 5K. So I have to train, and train hard. Which I will do once I'm done with this last term of school that way I don't feel guilty that I'm not working on homework. So, I'm looking at starting to walk after work on Wednesday and then possibly starting Couch to 5K next week.
Me wanting to do this isn't about losing weight, I want to be more healthy and becoming the fit person that I envision myself to be.
