The Reality is....

...that I am lazy.  Deep down, to the core, borderline slovenly.  That may be hard to imagine for those of you who have an idea of my color coded calendars and breakneck afterschool/work pace.  But truly, if I had the luxury (foolishness?) of completely following my heart, my days would look far more lesiurely!

Thankfully, it's not possible for me to give in fully to my nature, but it certainly creeps in here and there.  Hence, the need for this blog.  Unlike my sister, my workout routine to date has been (generously put) sporadic.  She is far better about a daily (or at least mostly daily) routine.  This is patently clear if you see us side by side.

Since I committed to walking 60 miles over 3 days in October and dragged her into this, I also pledged to train.  Regularly.  Consistently.

Good theory.

We started with a shared log on Google docs.  Great idea and it's going pretty well.  But between me not being very competitive and my sister not being mean enough to yell at me when I slack off, I need something far more PUBLIC to shame me into consistency.

Also, we've had some pretty funny anecdotes on the journey so far.  It seems stingy to keep them just amongst the two of us.  So enjoy!  Be forewarned that some days may be fairly mundane - just logging miles.  Read at your own risk.

P.S.  Three miles at the WSU RFC track on my lunch today - yay!
