Exercise

When I lived at home in Sandy, sometimes while vegging out on the couch watching tv I would notice this lady running...


wait, I need to zoom in on the picture to really display what I am talking about...
There.  That is better. 

This lady would go for daily runs.  With her dog.  Though it never seemed like she was taking her dog for a run, it was more like the dog was taking her for a run.  She was always frantically running to try and keep up with this dog, of which I am sure outweighed her by a lot.  She never had her hair up either, so her hair was all crazy-like, whipping around adding to the humor.  Some days she had the leash tied around her waist, which just seemed ridiculous to me. 

Anyway, I thought about her while I was out running today, 4 miles if you are interested.  I wonder how many people vegging on their couch watching tv were humored by me.  I would laugh at me.  Just picture it, a 19 week pregnant lady, running down the street, in that awkward way - belly out front, butt sticking out, eyes watching the pavement ever so carefully to assure every foot step lands properly to avoid that embarrassing fall.  Yeah, I bet I was hot.

All this to say, go out and exercise.  Become one of those people that give the couch vegging, tv watching people reason to laugh - or motivation to exercise : ).

I don't know what I find more funny... the fact that you actually took a picture of this lady (and still have it... lol)... or, picturing you running how you describe you are running these days ;)
