Yet another resolution...
I have resolved yet again for the umpteenth time that I will start jogging again. I now have the same enthusiasm that I had each time I decided to start working out. Only difference this time is that I am making it public using this powerful tool called the World Wide Web. Let me see if this would help me keep this promise to myself a little longer, long enough to become a habit like brushing my teeth every morning.
Every time I see a dedicated soul jogging or cycling I beat myself up and ask whats stopping me from doing it. I still dont know the answer for that. Now that I have started working out, I have again joined that elite crowd of dedicated professionals. I wish to remain in that group much longer this time.
It really feels good after an intense work-out. A 30 minute jog in the woods refreshes my mind and body and I would not hesitate to share this with any enthusiast. Well, I would be even more happy if I could motivate one soul to start working out. I am going to strive towards that. One soul at a time.
I always wanted live someplace where there is a quite trail in the woods close to my house. It just so happens that I have been living in such a house for the past 2 years yet I never ventured into those parts of the woods until today. A very quite and serene jog through the woods was exhilarating. I also found out that this trail continues along a lush green golf course on one side and a creek on the other lined with drooping branches covering the trail. I just ran half the distance. There are still unventured parts of the trail yet to be discovered.
I hope atleast this would help me continue this journey through the woods for some time to come and make this road not take a well used one.

I too suffer from periodic guilt-driven resolutions, but never had the courage to make them 'public' like you have done. This is great, and inspiring.
I too hope I can keep up my own resolution to stay fit. But for now, I am going to keep it private, so failures are not too public. I am not yet that courageous.
