Running Sucks..

And yet I have decided that it is a new hobby I should pick up. For all of you who are "runners" you can suck it. Haha just kidding. I am secretly jealous of your awesome running ability. Your sticktoitness that enables you to reach a level of physical fitness where you look graceful when you run and not like a wheezing 70 year old smoker (me). So anyways, I have decided I am going to start running and because the only thing that motivates me is competition I have decided to sign up for a 10k road race on July 4th. I started using the nike iPod running thing, which basically tracks your pace and distance throughout your run. I am two runs in to my official training program and so far things are going good. Of course I am anticipating getting over the initial excitement of being able to run a 9 minute mile for 4 miles straight (I know, holy shit awesome), and begin to dread these weekly runs. But I am also hoping that I will become a "runner". We shall see, I'll keep you posted, unless I give up and then I will probably neglect my updates in an attempt to hide my own failure.
