Getting Active
A few weeks ago a co-worker mentioned that she was going to join a free run/walk clinic. I thought that it was a fabulous idea and I asked for the information, so I could find a clinic close to me.
I can't tell you how many times I have started to work out or say I am going to work out this many times a week and I never follow through. I normally do good for a week or so then I get to "busy" to work out. At this point even dishes look more enticing than exercising. Everything seems to take priority over working out. Randy, Jesse and I have all tried to hold each other accountable, but that doesn't last long either. We give into each other to easy. I have gained almost 20 pounds since my surgery last year. Being taken out of commission for so long has made me really lazy. I will be the first person to point that out. My surgery was in April 2012 and I couldn't walk normal until almost August or lift more than 5 pounds until the end of September. That is a long time to not be able to do very much and start bad habits of sitting around all the time munching on things because there is nothing else to do.
Women Can Run Arkansas has free clinics all throughout the state. I am running with almost 400 other women in Cabot, AR. Of course, we are broken down into groups and I am in the beginner running group because I can't run for a solid minute. I think there is still time to register, since we are only a week in check out more information here.
I felt pretty good running/walking with everyone this week. I surprised myself I was able to keep up better than I thought I was going to. Tuesday, I was sore, but it was manageable. I made the mistake of wearing my 3 inch heels to work on Wednesday, which was not the best idea for my legs. Thursday, came around and I was really looking forward to getting back out on the roads with the wonderful women at the clinic. I was definitely feeling it more that night. My muscles were still a little sore and I was starting to get shin splints. One of the leaders of my group took time after we got done running to show us stretches we can do to help with the pain in our legs.
I am looking forward to Monday night when we get out running again!

We meet every Monday and Thursday evening. It has been really nice to get out and meet other people that are wanting to get healthier and in better shape. The time goes by pretty quickly because we have people to talk with as we are walking and running. This week we have had to run in the dark, but thankfully next week that will change because of the time change.
