The many functions of my treadmill's start button.

My treadmill is how I get in ALL my C25K training.  I felt I should share some functions that came with my treadmill that I didn't expect.

Pressing Start on my Treadmill does the following

-Starts my Treadmill
-Makes me have to pee
-Makes me remember everything else I wanted to get done that day.
-Causes my children to be starving
-Causes my children to be in meltdown mode (my 3 year old has laid next to the treadmill & cried while I ran)
- Causes my children to fight
-Causes my children to not be interested in anything that they are able to do w/o my help

I know I should get up in the morning and get my run in before my boys are up BUT I am just not a morning person. Maybe one day I'll be able to do this but that day is not today.  I normally run when DH isn't home he is either out on a bike ride or at work. So When I am about to get on my treadmill I sit my kids down and tell them how important it is to get along and let mommy run. And with out fail I get interrupted almost every time. And if I don't get off the treadmill to fix the problem I've ended up w/ my youngest laying next to my treadmill face down crying while I run.  FUN TIMES(insert sarcasm).

My point being that even though I know getting on my treadmill will come with great trials it is worth it every time.  If I can get in my C25K work outs in anyone can do this! :-)
