Attempt #2

It’s hard to Get Fit, and even harder to get back into the habit of actually tackling this months focus. It’s now two weeks into April and I can’t say I’ve done a whole lot to achieve my Get Fit goal. I was throw back into the craziness of life when I returned from overseas travel on Tuesday and have yet to roll out my yoga mat. I honestly thought I would do something in the U.K. but aside from London sightseeing, aka walking around the entire day, and getting down on the dance floor at the wedding I attended, I did squat.

Despite my lack of movement on foreign soil, and my abundant consumption of vino, I don’t feel bad. It was a stellar time and I’m glad not a second of it was wasted on the regular, non-vacay, task of exercising. However, now that I’m home, I have to face the reality that my priorities have slightly shifted. While last semester, I would wake up at the crack to do yoga before class, I now opt for an extra hour of shut eye. Currently, in my few spare hours, maintaining contact with girlfriends over coffee or cocktails is more important than pilaties. Walking my 40 minute route, even if it is raining, is a lost concept to me.

Consequently, I can barely touch my toes when I used to have the flexibility to rest my palms on the floor. So, yes, life has been insane with goodness as of recent and I don’t dare complain, but it’s time to get real and for real Get Fit in the last 2 weeks of April.

Stay tuned.. -a.
