Its March first and its time to restart on my new year’s resolutions. To be fair, it’s not like I’ve abandoned them completely. I just haven’t been focused, healthy or well-rested. Life, you may say, has got in the way. Nonetheless, there’s no time like the present to get refocus on achieving the goals I’ve set for myself in 2018.
I set very specific running goals for myself for 2018. My posterior tibial tendinitis somewhat derailed my running when they decided to rebel. I haven’t been able to run really at all this year. My ankles/feet are feeling better and the orthotics definitely help out. Moreover, my doctor has cleared me to return to running. To celebrate this monumental day, I signed up for my first (of 8) 5K of the year. The Mercedes Benz Corporate Run is a blast. Thankfully, it’s a night run, which for me is a much better proposition.
I set a resolution to attend 5:30 am classes, but that resolution fell by the wayside come February. We had multiple viruses and a concussion in the house, so my priorities were elsewhere. Plus, who wants to be that gal that bring the flu to the gym – not me! This coming week, I’ll be back at with a M-W-F morning class rotation. I miss the circuit classes and the weights.
All of these things will become much easier next week as the hockey season comes to an end. Its a bittersweet time of year. Bitter because the season is over, but sweet because we get our lives back. Tomorrow Goalielocks and I are driving to the West Coast for his state tournament. I wish the scheduling Gods would have scheduled both tournaments on the same coast, but, beggars can’t be choosers. Wish us luck as close out our hockey season, hopefully in a grand fashion, this weekend here in Florida!
P.S. Goalielocks has been headaches free for almost 3 days now! He has returned to school and skated last night. He was happy to have skated, but it was a tough practice for him.
I like your style of writing. Well done! Good luck with all on your plate and getting back to your resolutions!
Thank you!!! Even my blogging habit took a hit in February! It’s all about getting back on the horse and getting after those goals!
Great to hear that you’re restarting, I think it’s something we just need to accept, we always need to restart, none of us can be perfect, so go with and good luck.
Yes!!! Absolutely right, too many people give up once they fall off the wagon.
Yes, we need to be kind to ourselves
Good luck 🙂
