Mom, Fitness, and Hormones: The Winter Blues In April!!!! #sweatpink #fitfluential #girlsgonesporty

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.

~Henry Ford

Just started raining on my run :(

I usually find myself to be a very positive person, but this much snow and cold weather in April is way too much!!! I have been so down on myself this season for not getting the miles I want to run each week. But with the brutal weather outside...I just don't feel motivated to get out! I finally had the ambition to go out for a run last Saturday, since I hadn't gotten one in all last week. Then, of course, when I finally decided to head out the door it started to rain and snow. I felt like screaming, "SCREW YOU, SNOW"! However, I will say that it was the best ran I had had in weeks. Even though my iPod that was recording my pace died part way through, I think I did pretty well. Probably because I was so mad that it took my mind off my actual run.

The best part of the run was coming home to warm meal. Then I took a hot bath and relaxed in bed for about 30 mins. As a mom, this was the best mommy time I had had all week as well. I am so fortunate to have such a supportive husband because I really needed this time today!
