I'm a Runner

I wanted to run. Little time has passed since I made my wish, but last night I was told that I am a good runner.

I have been running every day for the past two weeks. It is incredible that someone of my weight is able to say that. I am sore, but my knees haven't shattered under my weight like I imagined they would.

I have run in parks, fields and on jogging paths. My longest time has been 20 minutes, and my longest distance has been 2.5 miles.

I started out running with a trainer. Then one day I decided to run alone and found that I like that better. I like setting my own pace and charting my own course. During the day when I feel stressed, I imagine what my run will be like that evening and that gives me some relief. When I run I am not anxious or embarrassed about my size or ability. I am totally free.

I am a wii fit runner!
