And with that, I will no longer condemn news stations for bringing up news like this. We need to know. And we need to act. The government should act. For one, they should sought the root cause of this. Why mothers will come to a point of leaving their babies behind? Is it lack of support? Economic support? Shame? They also need to strengthen their program with regards to women, their rights and their protection.

I am telling that it is the government’s fault why some mothers resorted to that kind of action. Each one is responsible for their action, but then again, we cannot deny the fact that the most reason why moms would do such a thing is due to poverty.

I know how to swim.. I know how to bike.. and hello, I know how to run.

what else is stopping me to be sporty and to fulfill my dream of joining a triathlon (except for money LOL).. motivation that is.

Aside from that, I don’t know where to start. I’m too big to be fit. I am clueless in everything. I thought I should start running.. but the only running history I have was way back high school when I joined the University’s sports fest. And that was 800 meters… METERS and not K. and I can’t even remember how long it took me to finish it, but hey, I finished 4th pr 5th haha..

So my initial plan is to condition myself by strengthening my cardio through aerakaebo. Maybe I’ll give myself a week to get used to doing something aside from blogging. And doing something that requires me to move.

Week 2. This time I’ll jog around our subdivision for 30 minutes for about a week.. and as the day goes, jogging will turn to running.

Week 3. Running time. Now comes the problem. how will I know the distance that I have been running? So maybe I’ll just use the subdivision blocks as my reference.. first week of running.. 3 (or more) blocks and forth… with timer of course…

Week 4. Increase run distance.. and increase run time.. and hopefully I can do at least 30 minutes of non stop running without catching my breathe (which according to my run guru is an efficient run)

Week 5. test myself by joining races.. yay!

I will try to document my journey in my health blog and I hope I will be successful on this one.

I know that a lot of Mommies are now a BELIEVER of the goodness of sleep to our kids. And we all thank you for sharing with us your bedtime routine and inspiring other mommies to do the same..
