Basically, January was such an out-of-the-ordinary month for me, with our trip to France, the house-move and taking on this humongous project, that it felt like it passed in a blur and I never got a chance to find a rythm or routine.
Now that it's February, I'm ready to roll, to work harder, run faster and generally kick some serious bootey!
To start the 'year' of properly, I went on a six-miler. The first three miles out felt good and strong, but by now I get the drill: the wind in my back has that effect on me. On the way back, however, I didn't lose too much of my stride and vowed to keep running strong.
Well, by the time I got back, I'd realized that I'd run my first ever sub-55-min. 6-miler. EVER. Now, if that ain't the right way to kick of the year, then what is?

| I kid you not, I think that's a first. Told ya I'm a slow-plodder... |
How about running a sub-55-min. 6-miler followed by 30 minutes of kicka$$ Nike Training Club and 15 minutes of yoga-stretch-out time. That's what!
Happy 2013. I'm finally ready for it!
How did your first month of 2013 go? Did you stick your resolutions/goals/plans? How are you holding up?
Happy New Year- sounds like you're off to a great start with workouts like that! Congrats on the 6-mile best!
ReplyDeleteJanuary was pretty good to me! Turned 29, slowly gaining my fitness back (knock on wood!), and the days are getting brighter!
Happy belated birthday. Yes, so far so good (four days in...!). ;) And I've definitely noticed the days getting lighter, so another hooray for that!
DeleteLooks like someone needs to sign up for a 10k and get that sub-55 10k PB!
