in Fitness and Exercise
Haven't been for a run since November.... But I decided despite the less than stellar weather I was going for a run today. Just a mile but I need to get back into a routine. I coach my daughter's cheer leading team and between that and the snow here in Connecticut it just wasn't in the cards. I have gone for a handful of walks and did some squat, push up, and sit up training but haven't been running and I missed it.

I was pleasantly surprised I only lost 30 seconds off my time :).

Felt awesome getting out there and it needs to become part of my regular routine again. I still kept up with my food logging and lost some weight despite the lack of exercise but I truly missed the running.

I have also started to develop some anxiety issues in the last month so I am hoping getting back to regular exercising will help with that too. I would like to avoid taking medication if I can...
