I got the drugs

And now they’re starting to kick in and I’m beginning to feel too lazy to type this.

After going swimming on Wednesday I felt much better and it carried over into yesterday. I almost wasn’t sure I would need any medical assistance but I called my doctor anyway. I just want to be sure I feel OK about it.

I swam again last night and this morning went to a training group for running a 5k we signed up to do in May. I was tired after getting up early but totally got into it and did great. I can’t imagine running ever being my thing but I did really well. It’s going to be much easier when I lose more weight because I don’t like the way it feels when my whole body clunks down on me.

I never before wanted to commit to being in a race or anything but it really has been helpful to make my workouts feel more purposeful. And I’ve found the perfect people to workout with. They’re enjoyable to be around and still motivated enough that we don’t slack off and talk the whole time or convince each other to bail. It’s perfect.

Now I want to go lay down for a bit or something. But I’m feelin’ good.

Thanks all for your support. I might be the only person in the world without an ipod. I hope there is an in flight movie that could work just the same.

Lynne, my brother lives in Boston and I have both a Yankees and a Red Sox hat, not that I know the difference. I’m just going to watch a bunch of hot guys playing in the warmth and sun.

Have a great weekend all!
