Runner Motivation Report: January 11th, 2010

My previous entry explains my gigantic lapse in running. This entry describes my comeback.

January 11th Obstacles

  • It was dark and icy out there at 8pm (but warmer than it was in December)
  • Back to square one when it comes to my fitness. Its going to hurt.

January 11th Solutions and Motivators

  • I had a blood workup done, and my cholesterol is bad again. Will need to go back in 3 months to do another check. Need to drop some pounds, eat a little better, and get some exercise.
  • While not balmy, the low 40’s at 8pm is feeling pretty good relative to what we have been seeing. Also, after 3 days of sunshine, the road is clearing up. There are still some serious ice patches out there, but enough dry spots to make running possible.
Results

Let’s not talk about it. I am just happy to be out there again.

    Good for you for getting out there. The weather has definitely been a deterrent. I've been doing some yoga, etc. indoors but am actually eager to get out and run again. Now to schedule the time.

    I am finding that getting up in the morning is hard! I feel about a million years old at 7 am. I think exercise would help.
