on top of that, my crazy husband is training for a half marathon. why??? i don't understand it. don't you get bored when you run that much? i mean, i'm planning on bringing rihanna and chris with me when i run, but they can only do so much. and i can't really dance while running - or at least i haven't tried yet.
which brings me to my last point. today i was turning over a new leaf and was going to run in the morning. it's now the afternoon, i've taken a shower, and no running has happened. this evening i'll say "well, it's too hot, and i'm already clean, and we have plans" essentially procrastinating the run.
my girlfriend just ran a half-marathon and is rewarding herself with some really fancy boots. i think i should reward myself with more than just nice boots, because she LIKES to run and i don't. so clearly my 3 miles is harder for me than her 13 miles were for her, right?
so, i'm looking for some incentives people... all suggestions are welcome...

I think you should reward yourself with something you otherwise will not do...for instance, you know I would have bought the boots anyway...but, not at full price like I will now. How about a fancy handbag? Btw, I'm buying myself that too. What 1/2 marathon is Oliver running? Lastly, you can call me by name -- I know you got your hand slapped by another friend, but I don't mind being named.
You will enjoy running once you get over the hump of starting. Didn't you run cross country in high school?
Love,
Your running, beyonce wannabe friend.
I agree with Kajal, you should reward yourself with something you have been wanting to buy but have not splurged for yet! Handbag, jewlry ;)...whatever.
I am going to buy a nice winter coat and some fun running clothes. Spending a little more than my normal furgal self would normally buy. Then I am going to get a mani and pedi...and you should join me for that!!
NK...You are a strong woman! You can do this!!! I am sure you will start to find yourself enjoying running and feeling the benefits in the coming weeks.
I will be there with you the whole 5K!!!
HEY KAJAL- Congrats on the half marathon. I am running the Turkey Day Half in ATL. I hope you and the family are well.
