Back on Track?

So, within 13 hours, I worked out for an hour and ran 1.5 miles.

I FINALLY joined a gym - right across the street from where I work - AND - I actually went last night. Basically, I just screwed around for an hour - trying out the equipment and getting comfortable with the whole thing.

This morning, I woke up and ran an easy 1.5 miles. I'm hoping I'm starting a trend. My current plan is to run Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings (treadmill or weather permitting). Tuesday and Thursday night, I'll head to the gym.

Every other week, I'll switch it up. Work out Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, and run at night on Tuesday and Thursday.

Hopefully I can maintain some sort of schedule. If I miss a day here or there - no big deal. Overall, I'd like to get healthier and we'll see if any of this leads to another marathon. If anything's in the cards, it'll be a local affair (Steamtown or Lehigh Valley maybe).

So, let's see what happens! The current goal is to build up my core and start running more. If that's as far as it goes. . . . well, so be it. I'll be better off than I am now!!
