It's never too late...

To be what you might have been.

3 months ago, I set a goal for myself. I wanted to get back in shape. I became very sedentary in the past year and a half. I didn't like how I looked anymore. I knew that I was the only one who could change it.

So I began working out. It was hard at first. It was easy to say, "not tonight, I am tired." But I went. Granted, there have been times when I have had other things going on, and I either can't go or can't spend a lot of time there.

I started out on the Elliptical machine, and I switched to the treadmill about a month ago- maybe a little longer.I set small goals for myself, starting out solid running at 6 minutes. One time, I was planning on running 18 minutes, and had to stop at 14 minutes because my side was hurting.

Tonight, I am proud to say that I not only hit the 3-mile mark in running, but I also ran for 37 minutes! This is a huge accomplishment for me, as I have never been a runner. I hope to run my first 5k in just a few months.

This leading to bigger and better things.

So, that old saying, "it is never too late to be what you might have been" is so true.
