    Gidget's progress thread

    The title is self indulgent, sorry. I just wanted you all to know I ran for 38 minuets today. I have no idea how long the distance is, but there is this one wicked hill in our neighborhood and I made it up. For the first time, I made it all the way up and I wasn't even out of breath. In fact, when I got to the top, I felt great, like I could run forever. It was awesome. This was after 30 minutes of straight running too. I know this is small to most of you, but this hill has been killing me for the last month. It is long AND steep. Today I likely ran close to 4 miles and I know that isn't much, but at the end I felt like I could run 4 more easy, and that is saying something for me.

    I can feel that my body is in way better shape, and I am happier because of it. I have lost about 13 pounds total now. It is slowing down but I am keeping going. I need to lost 8 more pounds to reach my goal. . . .

        Personally, I find it rather maddening to run to 3/4 music. That you did it to 38 songs in a row is impressive, to say the least.

            I bet you can run circles around Surfah. Good work.
            What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

                  If she were making a fat joke, she would have said "I'll be impressed when you can run a complete circle around Surfah."

                              I'm praying for Surfah's continued success so that Gidget doesn't get crushed.
