What am I getting myself into?

I know that I am not the only person out there that wants to be a runner, but doesn't like running. My hope in creating this blog is to make myself accountable. If I think I'm going to do something, but no one knows about it, and I don't do it, know one will know I didn't do it. If I tell someone I want to do something, or share a goal of mine, and then don't do it, that is a whole different story. I also want other people that don't like running to know that they are not the only people that struggle with this. There is a lot of thing I want to do and people I want to be, but I just don't do it. I feel like I have a lot of good ideas that go to waste because I can be lazy and distracted. Is becoming a runner my ultimate goal in life? No, not at all. Do I change what I want to be quite often? Yes, and to be honest, I think it is part of my charm.
We'll see where this takes me and what I learn. Sometimes I feel lost and in search of something. Maybe I can get to it faster if I run instead of walk.

I was Not born to run

I don't like running. It is hard and not fun. But, I wish I liked to run. I admire runners. I'd like to be a runner. I hope that I will wake up one day and love it, but don't think that is how it works. I'm sure a fair amount of laziness attributes to my problem. I'll keep you all posted on my journeys, share a few of my favorite running related memories, and post some challenges to myself, in the hopes that writing it down will make me want to do it more.

Cheers!
