So, it's been 3 weeks and I'm still on a roll on my treadmill. Having been a dancer for over 25 years and then retiring myself from the stage, it's been an uphill battle to get my body back into shape. It really is tough to get back into shape after having kids. I didn't believe it, but it's true!!!! After my 1st child, I bounced right back. After my second child, there's a lag time with my back end during my gait. sigh.
We were in Toronto staying at the One King West where they had a very lovely exercise room/spa. It overlooked the lake and was gorgeous since all the walls were windows. That wasn't the kicker that got me on the treadmill. It was the lovely cable television that kept me running. Wow, time just flew by. My mind was distracted and it worked. Those that know me know that I really can't stand to run. It's boring and jarring to me. I always said that if I found a runner smiling while running then I'd pick up the sport. But no, it's not the smile. It's the distraction and I found my distraction.
I now run on my treadmill with the portable DVD on it watching my movies. Hmmm...maybe it's time to get Netflix?! Oh, I don't run with a ripped sweatshirt collar and shorts. LOL!!!!
