Resurrection?

I've been thinking about this blog lately. I'm hesitant to post anything on it again because I don't know if I'm committed to it at this moment. BUT...it keeps popping into my mind, so here I am.

I hadn't run for real since July. I kept trying off and on and then I switched to the elliptical because it's easier. It must be the time of year because the urge to run has hit me again, just like it has done this time of year for the past three or four years. If only I could sustain the urge after a few months pass.

I've put on 25 pounds since I stopped running regularly and I get older every day (really?). It's physically harder for me to get back into it every time I take a "break".

I have run on eight of the past 11 days which is pretty incredible when I didn't make conscious decision to run again. I'm running at a much slower pace right now than I ever have before, but I'm not getting frustrated--I'm just happy to be out there moving along however slow it may be.

I'm not going to make any premature announcements about races I plan to run in or miles per week I intend to fit in...I'm going to just keep running and see where I go.
