running.


so i haven't run in ages. 
lack of motivation. 
lack of space. 
lack of energy. 
lack of a left shoulder. 
ya know. not much going for me in the running department... 

so. yesterday i did something about that. 

step one: make a space.... 

here is before in our basement. 


annnnd after!!!


and no. i didn't just shove everything against the wall. its organized over there! 
i want to get a curtain, sheet, cloth, something to form a wall between the crap and my 'at home gym". 

so now i have a space. 
(because outside running doesn't happen in the mountains. and in the cold)

next step. 
new shoes...

here are my new beauties. 

29.99$ ....holla!
on sale from 85$ :) 

i love a good deal when i see one. 
even better... they are REAL running shoes. 
made for running. 
super light. airy. and incredibly comfortable with a HUGE arch support. 
i was pumped. 

so. after a space. and some shoes. 
and my couch25K app.... 
i ran yesterday. 

and it was good. 

and today i signed up for a 5K.... mainly because the cutest 8yr old ever from our church is running it and asked me to run it with her. and its a fundraiser for her school. sooo i said yeah. 

so. back to the 5K running I go!!
bring it on treadmill.
