Back in Action, Back on Track

Let's be honest. I have a been a HUGE slacker recently. My friend Carlyn so kindly pointed out to me that I haven't run since August 4th (damn RunKeeper activity logs!) and I have noticed a few eyebrow raises from friends and family regarding my food choices lately. While I haven't completely fallen off the wagon, I've maintained my weight, I am not doing what I should be towards my health and fitness goals.

So today we get back in action and back on track. Yesterday I did a huge grocery store run and stocked up on all the necessities. Low fat snacks, veggies, fruit, protein. This morning I started off with a great breakfast. Multigrain flatbread with 1 tbsp peanut butter, a banana, and some iced green tea. I have my Special K Protein snack bar all ready for my morning snack too.

Tonight, I am going to try to get out the running shoes and go for a short run if its not raining. Next Step G.I.R.L (getting inspired to run for life) training starts on Thursday. Hopefully my time trial isn't too horrendous after not running for the majority of the month. It will be great to get back with all those amazing women and coaches and get training for an 8K! 

So today I am printing this quote and sticking it on my desk to help keep me on track. I will use it through the week and see if it helps remind me to stick with it! Wish me luck!
