Beep, Beep, Beep Your Heart is About to Explode

Last night FG made me run with my heart rate monitor on and boy does that tell you what lousy shape you are in. As we had to practically crawl up hills to stop the danger, danger beeping I felt like I hadn't made much progress in this running thing.

I guess the only solution is to keep putting the miles in (17.5 ish so far this month) and give it time to get easier/better. I do FEEL better and that's what really counts! Woohoo, between the running, drinking boatloads of water and eating better, I'm on the road to healthy living... kinda makes you want a Snickers and Diet D.P. to celebrate doesn't it!?!
