Today I did something I've had the intentions of doing several times but had never actually done before. I ran on a treadmill at a hotel. I've had good intentions in the past, but I just didn't follow through on the past. Tonight after a long day of making memories and being drenched in sweat … Continue reading Sticking to it.
