Not having to pay for a gym membership???) but every time I go out to do it, I barely graze a mile before I feel like I'm going to die. My mum's company actually runs in a huge 5k race every year and I always do that, and somehow make it through (I think pressure of embarrassment) under a half hour. So I must be ABLE to do it! And one of my good friends had never run a day in his life, just up and started one day, and now runs 15-18 per DAY. He lost like 50 pounds and gained so much muscle. Running is a good thing!!! =)Michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03985905153501059270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424251792068650186.post-30704341856366502132011-04-27T20:43:05.452-04:002011-04-27T20:43:05.452-04:00Go, Stephany!
