running

- Good news folks, Ive decided that I have gotten fat enough. I was unsure up until about last week. I tried on a shirt that I wore for one acts in high school that used to be my "lose army shirt."

- This shirt was no longer as such. It was tight. Rebecca who is the always reaffirming awesome wife said its because my shoulders must have gotten broader. This is true, but not the whole truth.

- With this new found revelation of fatness I have decided to start up a more consistent exercise routine. Which is basically running just under a mile 5 days a week.

- I could kill myself and run longer distances, but I wouldn't run very well(lots of stopping and restarting), and if the running is an unpleasureable experience, I wont do it very often.

- So if the mile path I have paved for another week, I will bump it up to 2 miles. My goal is to lose weight, feel fit, not hurt my shins (this is a big one, ive had major issues with shin splints in the past), and to get a tan.


Do any of you have any running strategies?
