Couch to ATHLETE!

We all know exercise is good for us, and necessary, but doing it is another story. As I stated just a couple of weeks ago, I want it... I want it so bad!!! If that is the case, why is it so damn hard? Well a wise woman once told me, several years ago when I was struggling so hard, "you must not want it bad enough." Oh, and the truth hurt... I mean, how could she be so flippant with my feelings of despair? Well, I decided to show her how wrong she was; I signed up and did half ironman number two. So, was she right? Well she was right about one thing, I wanted to prove her wrong bad enough, and I did... However, her point was not lost on me. You have to want something bad enough to choose to do it, change it, manage it. I'm unhealthy and I want health bad enough... I'm not exercising much and I want that next half ironman bad enough...  I can't bend and tie my shoes as easily as I used to and I want to take care of myself bad enough... I get fatigued quic
