Jay..E...ell...ell...Oh

Well I made an attempt at a fitness class but my intentions were only to get out of the house and meet some new moms.

I discovered a class offered right in my backyard (literally behind the house) called Baby and Me Pilates. It started last week, which means I had already missed one class out of 8 so I figured I better start this week. I realize that I haven't gotten my go ahead yet from my OB as my 8 week appointment isnt until the 9th but I thought "how hard could it be?"

Yikes! I underestimated how out of shape I am.. My abs have the consistency of Jello and legs like spaghetti.

I am feeling it today, that's for sure. I need my yoga class back. I think I will start on Monday #famouslastwords.

Yo mamma is so...

Okay I must apologize as I have been on a bit of a hiatus. But I do have a good excuse, we had our little boy on December 11 and what a month it has been.

Christmas was mayhem with the new baby, with family celebrations and friends dropping in, time just got away from me.

I am waiting the full (recommended) 8 weeks before I start any exercises, other than walking. But as soon as I get my GYN's go ahead I plan on picking my running back up. YIKES! It has been so long. I am starting with a goal for a 5K race in June (Mount Albert Sports Day 5K) then I will be taking the "learn to run 10K" class again through Body Design and ready to run a 10K race after it is complete. I will see how I am once I start but a half marathon goal by Fall 2012 might be in the picture. Ah that's scary.

I hope everyone has had a great winter so far. I am excited to start thinking about my spring goals. I will also be taking the same FANTASTIC yoga class with Sandy in Mount Albert. Message me if you want to join, I would love some friendly motivation.

Talk soon!
