Back to Square One

Well, it isn't the new year yet...but I am trying to get back into a workout routine.  I've been in a workout slump since September and I've tried to pull myself out a few times but it hasn't worked.  The winter months always get me a little down in the dumps.  However, as usual around this time I start to feel squishy and not so comfortable in my own body.  So back to square one I go.

I certainly felt like I was on square one when I was running today. Lesson Learned - I should never stop my running routine.  Building those running muscles back up is not easy, everything grumbles and aches.  I know though that with just a few weeks I will be back on track and it won't feel so difficult to run a few miles. 

Yesterday I made it to gym with Manda and SB and it felt great to do 6 miles on the bike, almost a mile on the stair stepper thingy mabob and then some ab work.  Today I am feeling it and realize just how out of shape I've let myself get.  I'm hoping I'm not stuck on Square One of running and fitness for long with a little determination and focus.  I hope that I can get back into the routine of  working out, running and blogging.  And of course juggling school, crazy dogs and an even crazier husband.
