I have been a gym member for the past (almost) two years. If you have children, it is not that easy. The first couple of times, when I brought Coqui to the child care over there, he was not so happy. But after a while, he figured I'll come back and he can run around in their play thing over there. So it worked great for me to go two to three times a week. Yeah for me... back then....

Now that I have two children and one VERY clingy one - oh well, I do this child exchange with my neighbor. She has my kids for my gym day for about an hour and a half. And in return I take her child for about two and a half hours a different day. I kind of feel when I take hers for a little longer, it's more just, as my two ones are much more work for her....

So I only get to work out once a week..... bummer! My husband didn't want me to run in our neighborhood, but today, he finally gave in and let me do it. It is easy to run on the treadmill - at least for me. I can see how fast I get how far and I like it that way. Running outside where you don't know anything but that it is way too hot, it's a whole different world. But I want to do more than just once a week and I also want to run - sometime in my life - at least a 5K. If I ever can do more than that, great, but so far, my goal is a 5K, for some charity to support something that I am interested in - like some cancer walk or run.

It was hot out there today, because I ran right before 8pm. But it felt good. I was sweating like crazy, but a good sweat!!! I am happy.....
