On Sunday, I went for a run. I was out about 50 minutes and for the first time in my life (even in elementary/middle school PE - I had knee problems and was in horrible shape) I ran a full mile without stopping.

I know its just a mile. But it was one item to check off my life list.

Realized last post made it seem like the mile took me 50 min - the mile itself only took 12 minutes and wasn't all that hard! Then I walk/jogged on and off for the rest of the time.

I am going to try not to belittle it. I had never run a mile without stopping before - now I have. Go me!

55 min on the stairclimber. I am trying a couple new things to mix it up - varying the type of cardio I'm doing and focusing more on intervals.

That's cool that you're changing things up, mandalinn. I'm kind of being forced to change because our gym membership ran out and we're not renewing until the new year since we'll be out of town all next week. I plan to run every day that I can, and then use my sister's gym when I'm visiting my family. I think it'll be good for my body to take a break from the elliptical and focus on the running for a bit. I'm getting into it! I love the elliptical, but it just seems like there's nothing like running for cardio.

50 min step aerobics video (an old but good one -- I felt like it was the early 90s again)

45 min step video (a different one -- I have to be creative and do different things until my gym membership is renewed and today it was raining outside!)
