Dusting off my running shoes

15th - 18th - 20th - 22nd - 23rd - 25th - 26th. What do those dates have in common? They kicked off my new gym regimen this month!

I'm absolutely determined to get back in the fitness saddle - and my pre-baby jeans. It's been 3 months, I can't stand only having 4 pairs of pants that fit, and it is getting too cold for just dresses (heck, even the stockings aren't comfy on me yet).

So I'm taking full advantage of the first month free trial membership until my work has a good gym discount to offer me next month. I'm LOVING it so far - whether its a quick trip at lunch or getting up early before work... I haven't hated a minute of it yet!

I'm also contemplating doing a turkey-trot 5k. I can easily do a 5k on the elliptical, but haven't tried it running out in the open yet. Wish me luck!
