So the workout thing hasn't been going so well.
Life, on the other hand, has been going along quite well.
I got one workout in two weeks ago, between returning from Maryland an leaving for St. Lucia. I also managed a Scentsy party, a girls night and a ton of errands that included a successful clothes shopping trip.
Then I spent a booze and food filled week of fun and relaxation in St. Lucia. There was sitting without interruption, sleeping in, doing nothing, ziplining and golf. And when I got home, I was no heavier than I was when I left. Sure I was crazy bloated when I left, but I still consider it a success.
The real problem has been since I got home. It's hot here. And I don't mean a little hot, I mean well over 100 during the day, and still in the mid 90's at 10pm, which is sort of my cut off for how late I'll run. I did one daytime run, and I've sworn that I'll run tomorrow, no matter how hot it is. I have GOT to get back on track.
(Yes I could run in the morning and it would be cooler. No, I still don't see any way to convince myself to get out of bed a minute earlier than the kids make me.)
Have I mentioned I finally signed up for a race? A 5K, in late September. I was totally ready for a race three weeks ago, but now I feel like I may almost have to start from scratch.
Also, I'm still kicking around the idea of a half marathon in early December. I'd need to start training for that uh, now, but the first run are 4, 4 and 6 miles, so I need to get back to where I was before I can think about that kind of schedule.

I wish I knew the secret to enjoying exercise/running etc. Good on you for keeping up, even if you've slipped up here and there. You're still miles and miles ahead of me, who considers herself lucky if she makes it around the block once or twice a week ;)
