I did it!

Me and the gym had a welcome reunion this afternoon. I will admit that I have only been to the gym once (twice including today) since my twins were born lo those 19 months ago. My lack of hitting the gym along with my crazy high current weight caused my workout to be laughably difficult. Nobody should have shin-splints within 2 minutes of starting warming up. Well, we all have to start somewhere. I completed my workout as a sweaty mess, and I felt like a million bucks.

As great as my trip to the gym was, there was more news that made it the best ever! I can take my kids to the gym's kids club for a measly $16/month. That covers up to 2 hours of childcare a day every. single. day. of. the. week (except Sunday when the gym is closed and I wouldn't go anyway.)  I think I'll want to go work out just to get a blessed break from my active little handfuls of joy. Dudes, you have no idea the pure joy this brought to my heart. I just hope the kids don't flip out when I drop them off a-la church nursery.

Progress report 
Longest distance run: 1.67 miles (really?)
Fastest mile time: 17 min (REALLY?)
Weight loss to date: 3 lbs! (yes, really!)
Etc: I'm drinking water like a maniac and excited to do more running! One day down, forevers to go.
