Out of shape & lazy Options

[amysmojo]

Everyday I tell myself I want to start working out. But I never do! I always come home from work & get online or watch TV...& spend the rest of my evening doing nothing! Ya...no good! So here is what I was thinking...if your like me & need motivation to work out, maybe we can motivate each other. Whether you like to run, or walk etc. Lets keep track of it & see who can get the most mileage Since you all like to compete I figured this would be a good place to do it. Here is a chart of conversions so you can keep track of your miles:

walk 1 mile = 1 mile (duh)
run 1 mile = 1 mile (duh)
bike 1 mile = 1/4 mile
swim 1 mile = 4 miles
Rollerblade 1 mile = 1/2 mile

So who wants in on this? Come on I need motivation! It would start today & everyone starts with ZERO miles. We can post our progress as we go & see who can get the most "miles"

Its just an idea I had, if no one wants to do it then uhhh never mind I'll do it alone you lazy bastards

I told you im lazy....

Its almost been 2 weeks since I started this thread & I havent gone running once! Mainly because I need someone to go running with. Being a woman living in this crazy world of ours today I dont feel safe running alone...& I dont care what time of day it is.

Anyway yesterday I did some crunches & stuff like that which after about 10 - 15 min of my little ghetto work out I was out of breath & sweating...thats pathetic! But I am all sore today so thats good better than sitting on the computer doing nothing So I really, really want to start running...I wish one of you lived closer to me...so we could go running together! UNLESS Ace or Andy want to go running w/ me lol they dont live very far...

here is a "weight-for-height" chart....Im 5'7" & weigh 132lbs (last I checked) Woohoo Im a healthy weight! But I want my engery back!!

How is everyone else doing w/ their excersise?? can you fit behind ur steering wheels?
