it's been a minute... or 4

 hello!!!  back in the saddle.  back in 2021, i was training for the iceage 50 miler and things began hurting again so i thought i would never run again!


as i stated in the last post, i joined the gym and started lifting weight regularly... to the tune of 5-6 days a week. zero to very little cardio and resigned myself to the fact that i would probably never run again.


lifting gets boring as the only way to have lifting goals is to lift heavier... always heavier.  my body was getting bigger, and i didn't fit into my clothing comfortably anymore.  


last september i quit the gym i belonged to because i was bored, and i decided to join adventure rock.  i started climbing and going to yoga again weekly.  i also started running semi-regularly again too.


i have 2 races on the schedule.  


sweet home milwaukee 5K (which i've run once before) and chippawa 20 miler - both in april.


i also joined another gym very close to my house, so i will be more motivated to go.  the new schedule begins tomorrow.  i need to actually hunker down and get serious again about my fitness and running.  


we will see how it goes...
