3 weeks to make a habit?

I think that's the rule. If so, I'm almost there. It's week 3, and I'm still going. My routine is to take the dogs for a walk as a warm up and to gauge the temp, then go for a run first thing in the morning. Then I sit dripping, cooling down and write my post, then shower and start my day.

My biggest challenge, and this is the dumbest thing ever, is that I keep touching my phone and ending my run when I try to check distance. So I end up with records of multiple shorter runs.

Today was really humid, and my thighs felt like lead. I'm looking forward to that magic feeling on a cooler day, after I've lost a few pounds, and everything feels easy and fluid. I am starting my no-crap food regime now however. Enough talking, I'm getting back in shape for real. Running shouldn't be this hard.
