Funny as it may sound, the gym was right where I left it. I pulled myself from bed this morning at 4:45 and was to the gym just after 5:00. After a solid hour of working out, 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes or so of circuit training I felt great. I will be back again tomorrow and probably the day after too. I need to make this part of my routine. It was at one time but I let that slip. I will do my best to not let that happen again. A few days would be one thing but I missed a whole month.
So as I crawl back on the horse I also did something that I had never done last night. I rode my bike for transportation. I rode to my parents house to help my dad put up a shed. I then rode home after. It is only about a mile and a half but it is hilly and I felt good about it. I think I am going to start looking for other opportunities to use my bike as transportation. With gas over $4 a gallon now I think it is time to do more things differently. The other thing I started last night was the 100 push-ups challenge. If you have not heard about it, I think it at least worth a look. Check it out to the bottom right of my blog. We will see what the results end up being. I can tell you I started out on the initial test and was able to do 6 good push ups. I will keep you posted on my progress.

Yay, you for riding that bike! And getting back to the gym.
Great job, willing yourself to that gym! Starting back again is sometimes a difficult step, but you've done it.
That's the spirit!
yeah for you ;) I think we all need to get a little creative on ways to conserve gas and our hard-earned money........getting more fit in the process is pretty cool too!
