Working It Out

::Sigh:: Much better.

I had been feeling guilty. That funk that I talked about a few posts ago was harder to shake than I thought it would be. Add to it that I worked 28 hours in two days over the weekend, and you have the reasons I didn't hit the gym or run for four whole days straight.

But, tonight after work I laced up my running shoes, and did 2 solid miles. It took a good half mile to work out the kinks and stiffness in my muscles from disuse, but then I eased into my familiar rhythm. Then I put some time in the gym afterward, and I'm feeling much better. I was feeling guilty about not having worked out, and I was irritable and withdrawn. That's the way I get when I'm away from exercise too long. It feels good to be setting the pattern to rights :)

Hitting the shower, because I'm sweaty and gross, then crawling in bed. I have the next two days off, and tomorrow will be a busy one, because Suzie arrives tomorrow, and our summer adventures will begin...

I'm very much looking forward to it ;)
