It's hard to get started with fitness, but once you're over the pain stage it keeps getting easier. Once you just keepin' fit rather than getting fit it'll be much less of a pain in the ass, apart from the time comitment. Very proud of you for sticking it out this long and not giving in to the pain! Hope you soon start to feel a bit better (stamina, healht, appearance or whatever) so that you feel it's worth it.

Sounds like Seattle is the Manchester of the US. We've had only rains in June, and my garden is a green, soggy paradise but everything looks like late spring, flowers either don't bloom or are succumb instantly to the heavy rain and disintegrate. And July so far hasn't been any better. It's depressing...
