The Next Step

I finally recovered from the sickness over the weekend but we went out of town to visit family and didn't have time to run.  We did three family Christmas in three days so it was pretty busy.  Got back home on Monday but had a bunch of things to catch up on so today was the first day to run.  Enough of the excuses and I really got to get back in the routine.  I am feeling sluggish and tired from not running.  Also, I have put on about 5 lbs because of not running and eating horrible.  Hopefully the next two weeks I can get going and then kick off the New Year right.  Just ran easy today trying to get back in the groove.

It was cool out today (mid 20's) and the roads were in better shape.  My neighborhood is still an icy mess but once I got on the main roads it was fine.  I felt good today and just ran along easily.  It was nice to get off the TM and outside to feel the fresh air.  We have another snow storm coming in tonight so might be on the TM again.  I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and enjoys some special time with your family!!
