Workouts and a New-Old Goal

I want to start running again! I started up again in the fall, after Max was born, but I've been lax all winter. I love winter running, but it's been too cold to take Max out in the stroller. Yesterday, though, I was looking for my yoga mat in the basement, and I had to move Max's stroller to get to it. I got to thinking: Max is getting older and bigger and loves being outside, even in the cold; the weather is slowly starting to get a little warmer; both Max and I could really use the fresh air; and I just really miss running! Now that Leah is back, I might even have a running buddy :) And the Detroit Marathon is in October. I figure that's a great goal to work towards. Knowing myself, I'll get up to 10 miles and call it good, but I would really, really like to do this. I'm just hoping I have the motivation this time!

Even if I don't accomplish the marathon, I'm just happy to be getting more active again. I'm really enjoying Mommy and Me yoga on Saturday mornings with Max, and I'm excited to take a class on my own this week. I never expected to love yoga, but it's really refreshing and a great workout!
