I'm not new to blogging, but I'm new to jogging!

I get talked into just about anything.  Trust me, I do - here I am starting a "running" blog thanks to my girl, Pam (who is also my partner in pain....ew, running) because she thinks we can "become instant millionaires" if we tell people about our "journey" to become runners.  Oh and becoming healthy people....because Pam and I are like the healthiest people in the world.

Yeah.

Yet here I am.  But I think Pam's on to something because we do have some pretty hilarious conversations as we're running (ok, slow jogging) and sweating like pigs.  When we started this back in September, we never, I mean NEVER, thought we'd still be jogging (I'll stop giving you the impression I'm running) in February.  Oh yeah, we rock.  For reals.  But let's get one thing straight - something you must NEVER, EVER forget.  I frigging HATE running.  I hated it when I started and I still hate it now.  Hence the name of this blog.  I love the results I'm seeing (I'm down almost 20 pounds already) but I hate what I have to do to get there.  Isn't that how everyone feels though?  YES, unless you're one of these health nuts and then well, you have other issues that need to be resolved because no one should love running like that. 

Ok fine, maybe I'm bi-polar or maybe I just like punishing myself - but I do find myself enjoying running/jogging/going towards the light more and more every day.  I doubt I'll ever LOVE it though - that's a pretty strong word.  Unless I drop 100 pounds and become one of those skinny bitches with her skin tight clothes on/full make up/makes it look super easy girls that I absolutely hope gain 250 pounds if they ever get knocked up.  I'm about to dry heave and Ms.IOnlyWeigh80Pounds zooms by us. Every single day - do these women not get sick?  Geez!  At least I have my girl Pam struggling with me.  I would totally look like an idiot if it weren't for her.  Two people huffing for breath and giving other people the impression we're have spontaneous/synchronized asthma attacks makes it all better. 

Right? 

I think so too - so anyways, I'll blog my little heart out as we continue on "our little journey."  We are signed up for our first 5k run/walk in about 3 weeks.  I'm still not sure what I am thinking.  I'm pissed I don't qualify for gastric by-pass...no running required baby!  :)
