ssssh...don't tell

I am a very capable person, now I just need to start doing stuff. Maybe it is still early enough in the new year to call this a resolution.

I am not going to mention this to anyone for a while, but I am going to train for the 10K. I am not going to run the 10K, that idea frightens me. But I am going to follow the YMCA training schedule. This means that I must run a mile on Saturday. This will be the first time I have run a mile for "real" since the 10th grade probably. I went "running" a few times in college and once when I had 48, but SERIOUSLY only made it a few blocks before I just walked. Wait, once I ran three miles during my 3rd year of college, but then I could not move the next day and I missed all of my classes and a lunch date with a friend.

I have been to the gym (sometimes even daily for a few months) on and off for the past 10 years. unfortunately, it has definitely been off for the past year and a half.

so running...yes... this is my definition of being "in shape"--- "being able to run 3 miles and move the next day"-- and I want to be in shape. I do not think oskar will go into training with me. He is a stressful and zig-zaggy wokknig (he doesn't know how to spell walk) partner-- no idea how he would handle running. badly, methinks.

btw, I have gotten a digital camera--but I just haven't gotten used ot it yet, so I have not posted any mutt pics in a while. But oskar is still awfully cute.

so-- so far, I am going to be a closet runner. but maybe one day, I will actually be a real runner. Let us see how saturday goes. or IF saturday goes....
