I should mention I made sure to get a really good pair of shoes, and while I was in the store (I know one of the managers at Sport Chek fairly well) I was asking about what I needed, as I didn't really know, I just knew that dress shoes and jeans weren't going to cut it.
I went with the running pants, breathable socks, t-shirt, and even underwear. I was sweating coming into the house today, but I have no doubt if I didn't have the proper gear on I would have been much much worse.
I haven't started bringing water with me, I really should. I think tomorrow after work I'll look into getting something to bring with me.
Right now my goal is just to do the 5K run in September, but I'm going to keep going to see how much I can do.
The thing that really keeps me going is oddly enough, wanting to write the blog. I hope you guys are getting a few laughs out of it.
