Over the past few months life has been pretty hectic between work, moving and transitioning back to civilian life. As such, I have really let myself slack on my physical fitness.
Nadine and I went for a walk Friday evening and it got me to thinking about what a Slacker I have been lately. Before our walk, I threw together a pack to carry to add some resistance. We only did two miles Friday night, but I decided to do another walk yesterday morning early. Yesterday I did about five miles with my 35lb pack and this morning I did 7.5 miles.
Nadine and I ran a few errands this afternoon and I found mylef barely able to walk. In fact, at one time I caught myself thinking that I was walking like "Cotton" from "King of The Hill". I'm still hurting!
To top everything off, Nadine wanted to take a walk this evening and I found myslef doing another 2.5 miles with her. Man, I'm dreading going to bed because I know how sore I'll be when I wake up. Hopefully the 2.5 mile walk in the morning will work out some of the soreness. I need to do a bike ride tomorrow too. I'm going to shoot for about 12 miles on the ride. I have to make sure I'm in good shape for NTC in May.
I forgot how bad it hurts getting back in shape.
