With the first two weeks of my break were wasted recovering, then a trip to the ER, and then back to recovering, I'm tired of recovering and want to really use this summer for what I can to get into the workout grind. I do have to monitor my HR and BP closely, but that's reasonable enough.
I decided last night while hubs and I were walking that I am going to start fresh on the Couch25k program and see how that goes. No skipping, no rush, just see. If I still don't at that point enjoy running, then I'll stick to hiking and walking, and in a few months, try again. The program is 9 weeks, if in 9 weeks I don't even slightly enjoy something, I don't think it's right for me at this point in my life.
I also got inspired by A Journey to Thin's blog and her 30 day challenge (actually, a lot of her progress and watching her transition has inspired me as a whole), so I will also challenge myself to do the 30 Day Shred for 30 days. Ideally, 10 days on each level. I will have to see how this will work with our mini vacation coming up, maybe do two one day, and two the day after we come home? Oh well - I will figure it out. And if somehow a day gets lost, I'll just tack it on at the end. I realize I can't control everything.
I also have my yoga lined up, at least twice a week (Tuesday and Thursday evenings) but once summer camp is back over with, I plan on going again on Mondays. My Tuesday class always leaves me a little sore, so I like to take Wednesday off.
What do you do to recenter and refocus?

is the 30 day shred the jillian michaels program??
Alicia - Yes. I have to use my iPod because listening to her annoys the crap out of me.
