Update on Fitness

So, I have not exactly kept up with the resolution—yet. I did write my exercise goals into my 2010 day planner—how many calories did that burn? I did not walk the goal of two days a week for 2 miles during my vacation. Well, that is probably because I walked WAY, WAY more than that for the 13 hours a day for two days I walked through the Walt Disney World theme parks.
I ate pretty sensibly during most of the vacation, but I was no saint. Plus, I ate an entire box of Pot of Gold chocolates by myself once I was home and facing the return to work. I have to forgive myself for the slip up and move on.
This Saturday I am meeting other women members of Team CHO as we map out a training plan for the Martha Jefferson MJ8K Run and 4K Walk on March 13. Some of these ladies are already runners, but others are just like me so I am encouraged in that I am not the only former couch potato looking to make a change. I do still plan to go it as a walker, but it will be great to have a true fitness plan as I ready myself for this event. I am truly hoping that I am not just readying myself for this event as I am for an entire year of fitness.
The spring will usher in softball for me again—I cannot wait to be back on the field again after taking the fall season off. I will let everyone know how my fitness plan shapes up after the Saturday coffee meeting with the wonderful ladies I have met on Twitter the past 6 months.
