Anyone else fighting the exercise blah’s this week? Where you know you need to exercise and know that you’ll feel great if you do go, but the hurdle to get to the gym (or to turn on a workout video, or to get outside and walk/bike, etc) just seems insurmountable?
That’s how I’ve felt this week. My evenings are overcommitted (with fun, wonderful, friend-filled things), I have a ton to do at work, and I never seem to want to get out of bed in the morning. But I’m committed even more to the couch-to-5k program, so I’m going to make myself go to the gym today.
Anyone else struggling this week? I needed to post here so that I would definitely go…
Yes, it’s been a week. I went one day less and still did 2 easy work outs. So, essentially I really only worked out once.
My husband caught a cold. And while I don’t have it yet, I’ve been feeling tired and unmotivated this week. Guess I must be fighting off those germs.
I hope we are all more enthusiastic about exercise next week. I think it ebbs and flows just like anything else. Even something is better than nothing, I think, even if you just get your foot out the door!

Yeppers…with you! Emma was sick again. I can put it on a calendar I tell ya. Every 4-6 weeks she is pukey sick. No fevers (except for 2x). I’m tired of just hearing oh, she’ll grow out of it. Maybe she will but I want to make sure that there is nothing really wrong. With that said, we spent all day Wed at the dr.’s just trying to get 2.1ml blood. It didn’t happen, we have to go back. Just when she’s back to her perky self, Jonathan woke up this morning sick. (I’m ovulating which makes me tired…sorry Bird but it’s the truth).

I have no excuse. Spring has finally sprung in New England and breezy, sunny days make me feel LAZY.
The running was hurting my knees a bit, so I have been going to Curves lately. But to get there, I have to deliberately make the kid’s miss the bus so I am forced to take them to school since Curves is on the way home. Is that sad that I have to trick myself? :-}
