Ok, so we've both been slacking, and I feel like I let reader MJK down...

Neither of us have been consistent with the push-up, sit-up, squat challenges, or with running. I can blame it on the move and how crazy it's made our lives with unpacking, family visitors, and projects. I can blame it on our busy work schedules. I could even blame it on the recent bout of unseasonable rain and cool weather we had been getting - but the truth is we just got lazy.

Before the Airport 5k race we ran once after the move - that is far from enough training to run at peak performance. And we hadn't done any fitness routines at all. As of today our exercise bike and weights are still in the basement waiting to be unpacked.

But this week that is changing. I went for a run on Wednesday and will go again today after work, and I restarted the 200 sit up challenge from Week 1, Day 1 which I will also continue with (day 2) tonight. Ryan went home for lunch today and went for a run before eating. And I have it on the "to-do" list as a priority to get the basement unpacked, sorted, and set up - including the bike and weights.

It's going to be tough to make time to exercise, and get back into a routine, especially since we don't have any established running paths yet - but we need to do this for health and sanity.

I'll keep you posted on how it goes.

Status so far:
200 Push Up Challenge
Week 1, Day 1 (repeat)
Five rounds: 9, 9, 6, 6, 13 (max) (Last time my max was 15, but I am still happy with this start)
