Starting from scratch

Hello 2011! I feel like I'm coming out of hibernation. My little girl was born the day after Thanksgiving and I'm not sure where December or the beginning of January went. What better way to get going than to set some goals.

Obviously, this being a fitness blog, one of my goals is to get back into shape. This to me, means fitting back into my prepregnancy clothes, getting at least an 85 on my fitness test in May, and running a 5K comfortably again by the end of the year.

The question is how to get there from here. I haven't run in months and I can barely do 3 good push ups. My main challenge will be finding the time to workout - after all, I now have the demands of two kids, my husband's TDY schedule is impressive this spring, and there's so much to catch up on. I know I just need to make the time and do little things like walk to the Wing building instead of driving the short 100m. A visit to the HAWC is probably in order but for today, I will settle for 20 minutes on the elliptical trainer. I'll let you know how it goes.
