Just Did It!!

"Every run can bring you pleasure--if you train your brain to think that way"

Dealing with my asthma throughout the winter, has been an unpleasant roller coaster and rough on me physically. Spring has arrived, summer concerts have started, and this past Tuesday walking through Central Park, I serendipitously found a run club for FREE!, YAY ME!!! :) With excitement, I picked up my new Nike's the next day, signed up on Thursday and this morning was the official 're-newed' journey towards living a full healthy lifestyle. This morning's route began at 9am: West Side Highway, from E. 57th, head to the WSH via 59th St. towards the sanitation depot at 59th & WSH, turnaround and retrace route back to E. 57th. I started out doing a run/walk but ended up speed walking the rest of the way back, the most important thing was I completed the 4mi. route at my pace and the patience of the pacers. I am ready to "temporarily" hang-up my heels for my new pair of NIKE 'Pegasus' sneakers with the focus on weight loss, no longer dealing with my bronchial-asthma and becoming a bigger advocate for women's health issues especially concerning the heart.  Cheers to me and my new journey of life-long health & wholeness!
