It's a new dawn, It's a new day and I am feeling good.

Well nearly. Christmas has been busy and I finally feel like I can't actually eat or drink anything else for the next month or so. The rain has been and it's now above freezing which means that there maybe some hope for me to get out for a run. I have planned one for Thursday or Friday with Nikki and I am seriously looking forward to getting out there. In the mean time my other half has bought me the EA2 sports game with heart rate monitor for Christmas so I had a go on that this morning but it made me realise how much fitness I have actually lost since the snow and the cold season has started and therefore I am going to attempt to go to a gym and pay to go on a treadmill.

I am not adverse to this as I actually like treadmill running but I get mentally bored and therefore I need entertainment. long gone are the days where I would move to a treadmill from cross trainer following the gym "hottie" and gawping at the uber tight shirt.......

I have been feeling some what of a bad person of late because I have not been out and I feel hugley defeated by this weather and my lack of enthusiasum for the cold winter evenings. My Moto or song for tomorrow and new years day is sang by the wonderful Nina Simone.... its a new dawn, it's a new day, It's a new liiiiiiiifffffffffffe..... and I am feelin goodddddddddddd. (nearly)!

Janathon.

One thing I have noticed since being on things like fetcheveryone and now even this is that I feel part of a community and for that reason I enjoy being a runner. I hate it when I am cold and can hardley catch my breath but once you get into a rythum and your feet just move underneth you with very little effort you can't help but feel amazed. Firstly.... nothing hurts and you can actually talk. secondly..... your not even thinking about your feet and third of all..... your nearly home for a hot shower and your bed!
Thats what I love.
And how I miss running right now.
 

What a day

I have started this blog because in January I am going to be doing a Janothon which means that I exercise every day and I have to blog about it. Looking forward to being able to run again. This weather has kept me at home for days and I think that I am slowly going insane.
