Ah the joys of running after so much time off. I just got back to running about a month ago and prepping for the race. You realize how much you lose in fitness when you stop for awhile. But the race looms ahead and the extra weight I am carrying is a good motivator.
Every step I take is a step twoards a better, fitter life. I have also tried to mix it up by playing tennis with my son, water running, and walking so I get moving in different ways.
I think the toughest part right now is just getting out the door and doing it in this heat. I have to wake up with the chickens or go later in the evening. I have to remember that even if this takes time away from my family, this means I will be around longer when I am healthier.
