I'm finding I can't do 30 minutes. Not that I physically can't. But I just get to thinking about everything else that needs to be done (like making a couple dozen layered pew bows for a wedding this weekend, and proofreading my MIL's 550 page genealogy book that she really needs done, and my biology homework, and the laundry and housework and getting baking stuff done for the church and for the 5th grade bake sale and the remodeling in the old garage/new office and playing with the baby and AHHHH!!!!). I feel guilty for taking 30 minutes for myself.

However, I'm taking a page from Flylady. I can do ANYTHING in 15 minutes. So that's what I did. Set the time for 15, put my iPod on some C+C Music Factory (yeah, from like the 80's. Things that make you go, HMMMMMM), and got busy. I fluctuated between 3.5 and 4 MPH as I felt like it, got .9 mile done at 2% incline. Then did a quick set of situps and pushups, and now enjoying some sweet tea for breakfast and checking my email. I don't know if I'll do another 15 minutes later (probably not today). But I think it's a good start to a routine.
