Early Spring?

The last few days have been a sudden blast into warmth. Sometimes having a hard time believing the thermometer and leaving my coat at home.

With the warm weather comes a reminder. A reminder that perhaps I'm not as active as I should be in the winter months. Sure I skated a bit. Hiked a bit. Walked here and there, but as the fact that I no longer need to wear a belt with some pants, maybe not as much as I should have. Today this was very apparent to me. Why? Well, yesterday I went to a short walk/hike with a friend and people from the Running Room. Yes, they have runs too, but for those who don't run, walks. Picture a walk on a beautiful day. Actually, picture a walk. Now picture a faster walk. Faster. A bit faster. Picture walking at a speed where if you went any faster you would be running. Yes, pushed me it did. Felt great, but my calves are stiff today!

Happy St Patty's day all!
