No Excuses

No excuses, that's the new rule for the day.... I ran. I didn't want to run, I had plenty of excuses stashed away in my brain, but knowing that I would feel better if I did, have more energy if I did, I just read the ABC's of how to achieve your dreams, gave myself a kick in the seat of the pants, (figuratively of course) put on my running clothes and headed out the door, water bottle in hand, IPOD set for some lively music. Ran a mile, not much but better than not running !
Here are the ABC's to achieve your dreams.....
Remember Your ABCs
