Day 3

I stayed up too late last night (10:30), so I told my husband that he had to push me out of bed when the alarm goes off, regardless of my excuses. He did just that. I told him I was too tired, and he says get moving and you'll feel better. The first mile was hard and slow. Some girl past me like I was walking (so depressing). After that first mile, my legs loosened up and I got in a groove. Next thing I know, it had been an hour and time for me to hurry home. I totaled 6.7 miles :o).

Nicely done Camille! Thank your husband for that great push start! Your battery was low and its a good thing you have a manual transission and not an automatic. Pretty soon you will have an automatic put in, you'll see! Keep it up woman! Make sure you put your total miles on here for us everyday! Cheers

Thanks! Oh, he got a lot of praise. He also helped me with this cake decorating class that I'm taking the night before. For some reason, preping was too overwhelming for me. I swear, he if definately the only one for me. :o)

There was an MIT grad that came up with an alarm clock that rolled away and hid when you hit snooze so you'd have to get out of bed to turn it off.

Husbands are good too.

That's an ingenious idea (which is probably why he is a MIT grad!). :o)
