Wow...2 Months Without a Post

Yeah, so it's been a long two months without a post, but to be honest, I have fallen off the wagon with running if for no other reason than everything else has been taking up more time than I'd like. I've moved into a different position at work, which is great for my career goals, but has been wreaking havoc with free time. It's been impossible to find time enough to run, although I realize there's always time in the day if you make time. However, making time in addition to 10-11 hour days at the office with another 4 hours on the weekend thrown in can be tough. The cold weather has not helped, as running in the winter is something you have to will yourself to do, and that's even when you're in the habit of running, which I was not and still am not. So, I just set running aside for a while. I'll have that much more work to do to regain my fitness, but that's OK. 

Annie and I did run the Turkey Trot back on Thanksgiving and it went well, despite both of us being undertrained for it. I think I'll get back to running regularly once it starts to warm up again and I can get some motivation to step outside in the cold morning. 

So, not to worry, as things are fine, just very busy and I have yet to really find enough time to dedicate to running, much less the motivation to run in the dead of winter. Perhaps Spring will inspire me when it arrives in March...maybe I'll get back to it before then, who knows. This blog isn't going away, although it might just be in stasis for a few more weeks as I organize myself enough to get a few miles in 3 or 4 days a week.
