Just do it!

Or really, I just did it . Running that is. Back in April I was so happy that I was back at running twice a week. Not fast and only 3K, but I did it and I enjoyed it very much. Then May came and I spent three out of four weeks travelling. In June I went out once and I hated every minute of it. I was tired and worn out before even starting and home I almost cried because it felt so bad and depressing. July was more or less one month of eating and drinking and being on holiday. Back in my mind I knew that at some point I had to take charge of things again, but that feeling of wanting to wasn't there.

Starting back at work last week a colleague and I somehow ended up talking about exercising. I told him that back in the days I did weights, running and swimming all in the same week. A bit shamefully I admitted that since I started at my current job things had gone downhill. No time or really not prioritizing exercise. My colleague and his wife more or less had had the same problem but decided before the summer that they were going running twice a week, rain or shine. Now, two months later they are actually about to do a 10K race.

I guess that conversation has been mulling in my head and today I decided just to do it. I took it very slow and walked a lot, but it felt very good. And the best thing is that I want to do it again. Soon.
