I did not go to the gym today, I woke up sore from yesterday's work out and the weather was bad today, so I just didn't go. I am going to shoot for going tomorrow, and since tomorrow is January 1st, I have to up my running mileage. I have to run 4.25 miles on the treadmill. I will have to stop the treadmill when I hit 4 miles and reprogram it for an additional .25 miles. It sucks that I can't run longer than 60 minutes on the treadmill. I am still trying to force myself to run a whole mile on the track. I ran .66 of a mile a few days ago. A mile is 6 laps at my gym, and I only did 4. Running on the track sucks for me. I just hate it. It makes my ankles hurt like the treadmill used to, and hurts my shins, too. I have almost totally stopped having those issues with the treadmill. Maybe it's a matter of forcing myself and then gradually it will get better like the treadmill did. I hope so. I am REALLY not looking forward to the surge in gym attendance with the new year. Historically, the crowding drops off about the middle of February when most people give up on their resolutions. I just don't want to deal with it. Mostly because of parking at the gym. There is no parking as it is and with hundreds of new members, there will be even less parking. Grrr! Thankfully, though, I love going to the gym now. I love pushing myself. I couldn't say that at this time last year. I also signed up to do some volunteering for the American Diabetes Association in my town. I have a 9-5 job now, so I have time to volunteer. I think I have a lot to offer the ADA - I have had successful weightloss and wellness efforts, and my diabetes is well managed and I have managed to get healthier and bring my blood sugar down to a normal level. I would love the opportunity to speak with others about my work on myself. So I'm excited. Everyone have a happy New Year's and it will be interesting to see what everyone reports tomorrow!
