First Run In Forever

The shelter in place situation has been tough on both the mind and the body. Every day is a bit like Groundhog Day, it just the same as the one before (and the one before that). Despite eating healthier (no fast food in MONTHS) I've continued to gain weight. This is a clear consequence of being so stagnant. Its not just the kids missing out on their normal activities, its ALL of us missing out on activity in general.

I've been thinking about how I need to go for a run for weeks. Despite the hot weather today, I decided today had to be the day. I made Brooke go out with me for a one mile run, just one mile. I figure it will take me a while to get it back on track, so starting slow is the best idea. I made the one mile, but Brooke kept coming up with excuses to stop. So, I think we BOTH need to get back on this running thing!
