Abstract
Around August, we (Angela and Matt) decided that we should start running every day. We had always talked about doing it, but it was always easy to think of excuses. Eventually, though, we decided that if we just woke up 15 minutes earlier each day, we could roll out of bed, run a mile and be back home by our usual wake-up time.
Honestly, it was miserable at first. Every slight incline feels like a mountain when you’re out of shape. And, lately, it has been dark and cold. Even so, running has become easier over time. It is now less of a hassle, less of a task that we dread. A friend of ours claims that we’ll actually start to like running, but we’re not to that point yet. For now, at least, we have generated some positive momentum. We’re doing something that keeps us healthy, and the more we do it, the easier it becomes.
