And the Journey Begins

Today. 30 minute walk. 2020 calories. The long journey back to some semblance of cardiovascular fitness. And 40 fewer pounds (that’s right).

It starts with that first step. Come join me on my journey back.

Can It Really Be?

Yes. I’m making an appearance. It’s been 6 weeks since I last pounded my keyboard on this blog.  And I’ve got to admit. There hasn’t been one mile run or five minutes on a treadmill in those 6 weeks. Sigh.

I’ve been eyeing all the pictures on all of your blogs. Of  the food, the sights, the races. Here’s all I have to offer for my six weeks:

The best news for me? I’ve had my “stay” extended. So it will be more of the same until September. I guess now that I know this is somewhat more permanent, I will need to start paying attention to some of the other aspects of life – like getting back into shape. I was noticing today how I was getting winded climbing one flight of stairs….

I’ll be checking back in a couple weeks. I promise!
