Okay, so I decided to start the running today. Went to the liberry (heh heh) and picked up a few books about running.Haven't read them yet....
Went to the drug store and bought some heel and arch supports. My heels have been so sore lately...a result of the achilles problem, I suspect. Took out a loan to pay for them (she says in a sarcastic voice).
Inserted them in my shoes.
Proceeded to the couch and had a nap. First thing's first you know.
Woke up, dragged my assssssssss down to the gym (yes there is a full gym in my building) and did some stretches. Got on the treadmill and started her up. Expected to last maybe....one minute, two tops. After eleven minutes, I was still going strong! I couldn't believe it.
After the ten minute mark, it occurred to me just how easy it is for someone to shit themselves while running. I got such an intense urge that I thought I would have an accident. Managed not to have one. Holy Mary Mother of God.
Ran a total of 16 minutes at speed 5.0 and walked 7 minutes at 3.0. Proceeded up to my apartment, and went riiiight to the bathroom. If you're reading this and you are having problems with constipation...hop on the treadmill. It'll clean you right out.
I'm happy I'm not as out-of-shape as I assumed. All of my walking and base running in the summer must have helped.
Stay tuned.
Note to self: I need a good sports bra.

I don't think it's running that helps with constipation....it's just the exercise no? I'm only walking the kids to school now and I haven't been constipated since......
And no, I haven't ran a kilometre EVER. Brisk walking is the fastest I will go....sans shitting.
where is your updates for day two and day three?
Dude. *high five*
You're awesome.
I wouldn't have lasted 30 seconds.
It's my goal in life to be able to afford to pay someone to run for me.
