So for the past few weeks I've been running everyday. I go to the same park to run, so I set a goal to run a little further than the previous day's run. So far I'm now able to run continously for longer than 10 minutes getting well over a mile of running in.
The course itself totals about 3 and a half to four miles long, so I'm quite a ways away from being able to finish the course in a continous run, but that is my ultimate goal.
I haven't weighed myself in a few days, I'm approaching this differently than I have in the past, instead of constantly needing instant gratification and results I'm focusing instead on the goal-oriented aspect of my exercise routine. I want to be able to run further, faster, and better. Those are the results I'm concentrating on.
I can already feel the benefits, I feel more flexible (from stretching), I feel more energetic, I feel more alert and sharp - overall I've been feeling a lot healthier and that translates into more self confidence that I've been lacking.
Next week I'm going to incorporate weight lifting.

I'm jealous! I still haven't recover from my fall completely. I'm afraid I'll cause permanent injury :(
