trackback
Conference season is officially here, and it’s interfering with my routine. I haven’t been exercising much at all and am not eating very well either. I was out at a conference this weekend and am leaving for another one in Philly on Thursday. The good news is that the hotel in Philly has a microwave and refrigerator, so I can bring stuff with me or pick something up while I’m there that is a bit healthier than soda and chocolate chip cookies. I’m going to bring my exercise DVD this time, too, since I’ll be alone in the hotel room. The other good news is that a friend of mine is going, and we usually can carve out some time to walk a couple of miles. I’ve noticed that I feel completely run-down and just overall gross if I get out of my exercise routine. I’m anxious to get started on the Couch to 5K thing, but it may have to wait until I’m done with the dissertation. There’s just too much to do and not enough time to do it all.
I hear you on the feeling gross, G. The few times I missed karate classes and home workouts in a stretch, I felt just nasty. Mentally, I felt very guilty, too. Never a better reminder of how quickly we build routines.
Glad to hear you’ll be joining the 5K program! No hurry, it’ll be waiting when you get back. The rest of us can be your guinea pigs.
