Tonight instead of sitting on the couch and watching American Idol, yes I am a TV junkie and AI fan, mostly the try outs. I walked/jogged on the treadmill, alternating between 3.5 walk and a 5.0 jog during the commercials, I missed the beginning of AI but got in another 2.55 miles tonight. I am pretty proud of myself, is it ok to give yourself a pat on the back? anyway I am having too much fun with this....

Oh my goodness, first off y'all are awesome and have given me a huge warm welcome.
And as far as "running" goes this morning, all I can say at least for two mornings in a row (that's a first since we moved from Hawaii back to the mainland). But I don't know if my walk/jog this morning really counts for much other than getting out of bed, getting shoes on, and having three of my four kids follow me to the cave in which the treadmill sits.
So while I walked and jogged I read picture books after picture books to my kids. Discovering that if you press pause on the treadmill it stops what you were doing, no more record of what you had done....so I am just guessing on my miles, since the last time I looked it was almost a mile. Then when I restarted it I did another .4 so I figured 1.5 works, plus don't I get extra brownie points for reading to my kids and exercising while my husband sleeps in??
