Starting is the easy part

Some people say that the first step is the hardest one. I disagree, the hardest part is steps 2 through 10,000,000.

Went to the gym this morning. I’m going to need to work on a new morning routine. As in, the alarm went off at 4:30 and I didn’t leave the house until 5:10, and that’s having packed my bag and laid out my clothes beforehand. I need to get a new electric razor so that I can shave on the way to work – I dropped my PocketGo and damaged the foil.

No improvement this morning, not that I should expect much on the second trip. Actually my legs were still a little sore and so my 90 seconds of running were more often interrupted by leg pain than by being out of breath.

After stretching and abs I did a couple of laps around the gym. That might be a nice alternative to the treadmill sometimes.

To advance to week 2 of my program I need to be able to jog for two minutes. That’s not the case this week but maybe by the end of next week. I should start watching for a 5K in mid-April.
