Now feeling better, and having FREE gym access at my new job, its time to get back at it. I signed up to do the Color Me Rad marathon in July with some friends. It may be just a fun 5K walk/run, but I want to run it. As such, I started the Couch to 5K program again today. After work I dragged my butt across the office to the gym and did the half hour run PLUS 40 crunches. It may not sound like a lot, but everyone has a starting point.
We have a 60 day corporate challenge at work. There are company goals, team goals and personal goals. Everyone was given a pedometer so we can count our steps and try to reach 100 000 000 steps as a whole company. Mine is to visit the gym 24 times between now and May 31st. That works out to three times a week for the next eight weeks. If I stick to that, I'll be able to accomplish my personal goal and the C25K program which will get me closer to being able to run the marathon!
I feel bad that I stopped working, because I would have seen results eventually. It's just so hard when its slow going. I hope that all of you reading this can find a little motivation to keep moving, even if only for one day!
