Fitness Challenge

This post has little to do with literacy, with the exception that I'll probably be listening to an audio book during the process.  Who else loves a good audio book while exercising?  I'm a big music fan, but when I workout I get more into the music and less into what I'm doing and my exercise turns into a running/dancing/lip-syncing hybrid.  It's not a good look.

ANYWAY, I am a constantly busy person, and fitness most often gets put to the side.  It's nearing the end of March, but I'm setting a new resolution for the year.  January can't have all the hopes and dreams.  Challenge: Run a 5k once a month.  I know I can run that distance and the money always goes to a good cause.  Knowing that I have a 5k to work towards might just get me off the couch. Yes, I know I should want to stay in shape for my own health, but my own health also likes to eat a lot of ice cream.  The heart wants what the heart wants.  Which, in this case, is the desire to be healthier with a strong dose of Mackinac Island Fudge.  I'm hoping this challenge will give me another thing I need: a kick in the pants.

I'm going to squeak one in during the last weekend of March.  Here we go!
