Slow start....

Or maybe that should say, "No start.". 

The flu hit us a couple of weeks ago.  First, Rocky got sick on a Thursday.  Rambo was hit the very next day.  Hubs started feeling it the following Monday.  By Friday, Rocky & Rambo were feeling 100% again, Hubs was over the worst but the congestion was killing him and now Baby Girl was sick.  I had prayed she and I wouldn't get it, but the fever was a fair tell-tale sign.  *Sigh*  MIL came into town & we pushed through the weekend.  But come Monday, it was my turn.  I've spent the last week & a half getting over fever & chills, then a nasty cough and now enough head congestion to fill a bathtub.  I know... ew, TMI.  Sorry. 

What does all this mean about my goal?  It means I've done exactly squat.  Great start to the new lifestyle, eh?!

Tomorrow.  I know.  What a cliche.  But really, we have plans to go to Run For Your Life and spend my Christmas gift certificate on new running shoes.  They are having a pretty awesome sale, that ends tomorrow, so I may even end up with 2 pair.  Then it's over to the YMCA to sign up for a family membership.  The "No joining fee" deal ends Jan 31st and I don't want to miss out on that.

You could do a little research and find out if anyone is offering a Couch 2 5K class, if you want to do it with a group. Or search onf facebook for the Couch to 5k program. It's designed for those who have never run before.
