True Confessions

[ 5 ] 09/20/2011 |

 

So, have you heard about those giant slugs that are invading southern Florida?  Well, apparently one has invaded southern California lately, too.  Yeah, that would be me … in the exercise department!

I’m not sure exactly what happened because I had been doing really well for a while.  I had my groove going and was getting in my workouts.  Then, BLAM!  It all came to a grinding halt for some reason.  I just haven’t been able to find my mojo to get moving again.

The bad part?  I have a 6k race coming up this weekend.   I’m also registered for the Sisterhood’s Run the ‘Hood Virtual 5k/10k coming up on Oct. 22. (Have you registered?  If not, you still have a couple of days left, so go sign up now!)    On top of all that, I’m also only 5 months away from a half marathon I registered for earlier in the summer.  I clearly need to find my mojo and find it quickly!

Skechers ProSpeed

I got some spiffy new running shoes that I’m hoping will inspire me to get moving again.   They’re the new Skechers Prospeed running shoe.  I won them a while back in a blog giveaway and they were waiting on my doorstep when I got home last night.  I guess they must have inspired me on some level because I did head out for a walk last night and it’s the first time I’ve done that in a couple of weeks!

What about you?  What are your confessions?  Hit us up in the comments below and either share a blog link to your own confessions post or just write out your confessions here.  We can all get through this together!

    I just posted something very similar to this on my blog - http://adirtymartinikindofgirl.blogspot.com/2011/09/these-are-my-confessions.html

    Just take it one day at a time Mel.  Set up short term fitness goals so that they don’t overwhelm you.
