A New Years Resolution to Get Fit & Stay Fit
Staying fit can be a real struggle for many people. Busy schedules get in the way of important workouts that play second fiddle to other important functions and appointments. That’s why, after overindulging during the holiday season, getting fit and staying fit is on the top of the New Year’s Resolution list.
Try to keep your run routine during the holidays. Schedule your run first and other social gatherings second. I run right through the holidays and it usually counteracts the extra social eating and alcohol consumed. When running through the holidays, it also provides a reminder to make wise choices. In other words, cut back on the sweets because ultimately you will have to pay the price.
Check in with your local running store because there are usually holiday fun runs to participate in. Sign up for your local Jingle Bell Dash or Resolution Run. Committing yourself to an organized run should motivate you to keep your regular run routine and keep the holiday eating and drinking in perspective.
Try to make a New Year’s Resolution with a realistic goal for staying fit. I find that choosing and signing up for a race in the New Year really helps me to hunker down into a proper training schedule and keep my date with myself to go for regular runs.
