OK OK, let me qualify that a bit. Do you know what skinny people over the age of 30 have in common? I would say the the majority of them exercise. I have posted about this before, but I think more people exercise than I realized in the past. I also believe that when we see skinny people, in particular those who appear fit, I think we need to realize that they work at it. I know what your saying. "There are just naturally skinny people". You know what you right and I have no answer for that. Superior Metabolism?
Now about this photo
I might just be turning into a runner. I am really enjoying this. Which after my first introduction to it on the treadmill, which I hated, I would have not thought possible. But get this guys, I ran 2 miles last night. Not walked part of it and ran part of it. I ran them. Now granted, I was running 13:30ish miles, but I did run them. I feel a bit sore today, but nothing bad. Running outside is just more fun. I did get heckled by some kids which brought back not so fond memories and reminded me just how cruel kids can be, but I did not say a word and pressed on.
So tonight I head to the gym for some strength and bike time and tomorrow morning I will hit the pavement again. I think 1.5 miles will be on the agenda but we shall see where the road leads us.
By the way of you have not Gmaps-pedometer you should check it out.

Have a great weekend.
Miz.
boo to the mean kids! Good for you! I love walking outside too....no running here yet. It feels good to know you are moving and getting somewhat fresh air in your lungs too.
I originally started out on the dreadmill; I mean, treadmill. After I hit the roads, running became enjoyable and my pace was much better. Occasionally I hit the treadmill at the gym and it feels more difficult.
This running thing is mighty addictive isn't it?
Well done you runner you!
It's just that we never "see" those skinny people exercising when "we" are overweight. Now, I take notice of everyone exercise and totally admire everyone exercising out in public.
