Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

Running? What is this thing you speak of..I seem to have forgotten lately.

Today, I did the elliptical, good intentions of going outside in the early a.m. but I wimped out. At least I got sweaty. Some weights mixed in with some yoga. I feel extra tired, I am  hoping it is bc of my busy weeks Ive been having and I'm not getting sick. Hubby is at InstaCare as we speak bc I'm convinced he has pneumonia. He is going on his third week of coughing and fevers. I just hope he keeps his sickness to himself, It would be rude if he passed it on. Anyway, I think I have just had to realize that this month is about the kids, the parties, the events, the shopping and the baking. I can let January be about running and myself again, but for now, I just need to do what I can when I can and be okay with it. So on that note, Happy Elliptical! : )

Great attitude there! I agree, do what you can and do not stress about the rest.

Hope your husband is okay, that is scary business!!!!

this, too, shall pass.

soon enough, you'll be out hammering the miles once more, enjoying it all the more earnestly due to the current hiatus...

nevels, My mom says that ALL the time. About everything.

I guess the correct thing to say rather than "I just need to do what I can when I can." would be "I need to choose to make it a priority and I'm not." That would be the more honest thing to say...but the other way makes me feel better. : )

Good call Lysa! Hope hubby's okay. Had no idea he wasn't feeling well on Sunday. What a trooper he is!

At least you got sweaty. That's what's important! Wait...you already said that.

"Some weights mixed in with some yoga!" Ha! You're funny.
