WTF?

The title should pretty much tell you exactly how I am feeling at this moment. I look back to the beginning of this blog creation and see that nearly two months - TWO MONTHS! - have gone by since I announced to the world that I was ready to make a change in my life because I am sick and tired of sitting on the sidelines and basically having no life. Granted, no one other than myself and the Universe KNEW that I had made that declaration, but still!

What has changed since then? Career-wise, I will admit that business has picked up a LOT which is a very good thing, BUT this is only one piece of the puzzle and not the piece that I had intended on focusing on so ONCE AGAIN I recommit to my health and fitness.

On the bright side, I have as of yesterday become a member of active.com to help me reach my new year's goal which is to run my first 5K. The members I have "met" are extremely supportive and motivational. Some of them were in my shoes a few years ago and now they are in their mid-to-late forties and are running 5Ks and half marathons. That is the inspiration I need!

I only did 15 minutes of treadmill today so I am wrapping up this post to do at least another 15. I am committing to doing 30 minutes at least three times a week from this point forward. I am repeating Wk1 of C25K because I cannot jog more than 60seconds at a time right now.


The only positive thing about this reality is that I KNOW I will look back on this blog in the not-too-distant future and be amazed at how far I have come and the progress I have made!

P.S. Completed my other 15 which makes it two days in a row - count 'em: One, Two - of getting my 30 minutes in. My minimum is three times a week, but might as well go with it if the motivation is there, right? and believe me, I know the dreaded dodgy doldrumonsters are waiting for me just around the bend . . .
