I admit it. I’m a wimp. For the last two years, if the temperature started with a 3 (anything 30 degrees F and above), I’d go out and run. Light drizzle? No problem. Snow? No worries. If it was 28F and promising to warm up to 30F or more before the end of my run? Yep, I’d go out. That was the last two years.

This year? No, not so much. Here was the weather from my iphone when I woke up:

See that? It’s above 30F. So what if it’s not sunny…right?  Yeah. Right.  I looked at the forecast for the rest of the day:

And thought, Ick.  I don’t want to go out in that.  So, there it is.  I’m a wimp and my running program has totally fizzled out this year.  Not only that, but it seems that exercising only once per week (so far) has helped me lose the 1-lb per week that I had as a goal, for the most part.  How is that even happening?!? I mean, I ran 4-6 days per week last year and managed to lose, for the entire year, only 5 or 6 pounds.  What is the deal?

So, here I sit at my desk, in my from-size-14-to-size-6 jeans-wishing-I-was-in-size-4-jeans, whining about being unmotivated.  Not only that, but I’m going to go sit in front of the tv in a minute rather than sew or work.  I’m pathetic.
