I must admit, the last time I went to the gym was New Years Eve? Maybe the day before?
My excuse? It's too darn cold to go anywhere! I should move to a warmer area. The temperatures hanging out in the 0-20F range have been my mortal enemy.
But today I woke up to a relatively warm 32F. It feels great after the past 2 months. I know, I know. This weekend was favorable too. But it's hard to get back into the routine for me.
Today I did it. I got my butt out of bed at 5am and made it to the gym. I ran on the treadmill for 30 minutes covering 2.75 miles. I don't think it was a bad start given I had taken 2 months off.
But now I'm sore and stiff. It's only been 5 hours but I already feel it.
My mood is terrific. I feel I can conquer all my daily tasks. So I'm holding onto that feeling to help get my butt out of bed tomorrow morning at 5am again.
