Re-embracing Fitness

Last night I started a new fitness class - the first in over a year.

While on sabbatical I took two dance classes, a Learn-to-Run clinic, tried pole dancing and even threw in a bit of yoga. I was in the best shape of my life. Then I felt a need to reduce my number of commitments and drastically reduced the amount of time dedicated to physical activity.

After spending six months adjusting to being back to work, I finally feel able to incorporate evening commitments into my week without feeling overwhelmed so I signed up for a class. What fun! It felt good to move. It felt good to get lost in the music, feel my muscles tighten and my mood loosen up. And yes my abs hurt but they hurt good!

One baby step at a time, I'm happily re-embracing physical fitness into my life.
