Lazy, lazy, lazy

So I didn't post last week and that's because I basically didn't do anything last week but sit and eat!  I keep telling myself, "tomorrow".  But if I continue this way I'm going to mess around and end up in real trouble!  I do this all the time and I'm not really sure why.  I sabotage myself.  I put things off and say later and then before I know it, it's too late to save the project or whatever on time.  Now I've messed around and wasted two weeks of my already condensed marathon training because of shear laziness.  That's all it is.  I can't get myself out of bed at 4:30 in the morning now.  I know that I CAN do it because I've done it before.  But lately I've been wanting to lay in bed and sleep.  Everything aches and it's too damn hot.  These are the excuses I've been using for the last two weeks.  My eating has been crappy, I'm gaining more weight and the cycle continues.  So I made myself sit down to write a blog post today.  I skipped last week because I didn't want to admit to anyone that I've not been training the way I should.  I went in to the running store we have on Friday and bought a new charging cord for my old Garmin, so it's now up and working again correctly, no more excuse there.  I also bought a blinking light so I can be seen by drivers when I run in the dark.  That gets rid of that excuse.. They told me they had some "headlights" on order, what ever the heck those are.  So I'm planning on researching that item.  I have the added problem of being overly ungraceful and tend to fall on my face a lot.  I don't like running in the dark because of that.  So any one have any ideas on how to get out of this funk?  Or any helpful tips on running in the dark?   I plan on having Ahtesham run with me at least one day a week.  We don't really spend any time together and let me tell you, he could use a little time off the couch too.  Not meaning that he's gaining weight, but meaning that I've noticed lately that he is spending a lot of time lately staring at the computer or the t.v. screen.  That isn't healthy for anyone.  I've also told myself that I will do at least 30 minutes of some type of exercise every day.  I already know that I'm going to walk some of the marathon that I'm training to do.  I've always used the run/walk/run method of training and it doesn't bother me to say I do that.  I see it as I'm improving every time I get out the door and it doesn't matter how I get it done as long as I get it done.  I have no time goal set for this marathon.  All I care about is finishing.  So why can't I get myself off the couch?  The answer to that question is unclear.  So that's my post for this week.  If you find yourself with a few free minutes this week and you are bored, pop over to my Facebook page and ask me if I've workout today.   This is going to be one long summer and I need all the pushing I can get.  Til next week!
