I am so damn out of shape.
Apr. 28th, 2008 10:50 pmI have been defeated by the spectre of twenty sit-ups in a row. This from the girl who could do fifty of them without breaking a sweat back in high school.
I'm also now a good twenty pounds over where I'd like to be weight-wise, and a good ten over what I'm really comfortable with.
I think I'm going to be hitting the treadmill (and perhaps doing sit-ups) on a daily basis for a while.
On the positive side, I managed to run three-quarters of a mile straight at 6 MPH. So I'm pretty close to my goal of making it for a whole mile.
So, goals: By the end of May, be able to (a) run a mile at 6 MPH comfortably and (b) do fifty sit-ups in a row. (Not necessarily without breaking a sweat. I'm trying to be set attainable goals.)
If I can manage all that, and be out of debt, I'll be a very happy woman...
