New Years Resolution To Get More Excercise: SUCCESS!

Written by Sheryce Butkowski on April 24th, 2009

So I don’t mean to toot my own horn or anything, but this is a big deal for me! For the past week I have been running everyday, and I do not like to run! It all started about a week in a half ago when I had a girl who was visiting the college stay with me. She asked me if there was any good trails around. After telling her about how many trails there were, she asked if we could go on a walk that evening. I hadn’t been on any of my trails to the pond or to the bluff probably for months. As we walked on my regular path to the bluff and then around to the pond and back up to the school I remembered how nice it was to have this escape from life up on campus.

So the next day I decided that I should on a run and then take a back route to the bluff I normally go to and then walk the rest of the way to school. So I ran as far as I could go and then took the back path to the bluff where I stopped for a while to pray. It helped so much to get things off my mind. And the weather this past week has been absolutely amazing, which has definitely helped with the motivation. Well anyways, the next day it happened again and then the next. And now one of my friends asked if she could run with me and so we run as far as we can and then walk back to school together talking about life. Yes, I knew this New Years Resolution was a good idea!
