This past Sunday afternoon I played racquetball for the first time, and having a blast, have made a minor commitment to try to get a bit back into shape. Now trust me, I know that setting the bar too high will only lead to utter frustration and failure, so I’m starting small, with short runs of less than two miles. The nice thing is that even a brief 10-20 minute run is quite invigorating and creates a nice transition between ending work in the afternoon and starting my evening.

We’ll see if I can just keep the motivation to keep doing it. Nothing big, just starting small, and hopefully on my way to having more energy throughout the day. [Plus it gives me a good chance to catch up on some awesome podcasts.]
