Our third and last day of running three minutes at a time. Just last week, running for three minutes seemed like such an accomplishment! But today, it didn't feel like such a struggle at all--it felt good.
But now we are headed for the week four workout. We will have to run five minutes at a time. Can we really do it?! I'm nervous and, at the same time, excited to see whether I can actually do this. What would Mr. Frink, my gradeschool gym teacher, say if he could see me now? Me, the girl who refused to run, ever, the girl who wished she had asthma so she would have a better excuse for not running than just being lazy... voluntarily trying to run for five minutes at a time. I think he would be proud of me. Maybe I should look him up!
In happy news, the biggest supporter of our happiness project--that's right, our mom--recently made a big donation to help us along the way. It will allow Megan to get a great new pair of running shoes. Woohoo! The bad news is she already runs way faster than me, so now she will probably leave me in her dust.

I can't wait for my new shoes! I'll make Cat go to Jack Rabbit with me and go through the process until I can find the shoe that allows me to run like Hermes. I just looked up Hermes to make sure I had the right guy... and to my enjoyment I found that he protects 'old crones'. I told Kristin my findings right away because I knew she would be glad to know there is a god looking out for her!

Oh, and Kris can get what she wants to further the project, too. Just so you know she wasn't slighted!
There was never a time when I made if 5 minutes running I don't think. My head wobbles on my long neck.
I'm laughing at Jane's wobble head. My monkey arms are swinging all over when I run. I don't even know how to run anymore. I'm so proud of you girls!!!!
