New Year, New Beginning

I did not make a New Year's resolution to lose weight or exercise. Resolutions barely last. However, Jon and I both realized the need for us to start working out again. We've been going fairly often with the exception of the last two days.

I've been doing about a mile on the elliptical with an occasional run on the treadmill. I've also incorporated weights into my routine. We also decided that on Sundays we're going to play racquetball instead of running.

I find myself making excuses about not going, but in reality, I need to go more and do more. It's just finding the motivation to do it. Yesterday Jon had been snowshoeing all day and was exhausted. I should have gone but used the excuse of spending time together as a reason not to go. Jon eventually fell asleep on my lap while I read.

Pray that I can commit and stay with it.
