I finally recovered from the sickness over the weekend but we went out of town to visit family and didn't have time to run.  We did three family Christmas in three days so it was pretty busy.  Got back home on Monday but had a bunch of things to catch up on so today was the first day to run.  Enough of the excuses and I really got to get back in the routine.  I am feeling sluggish and tired from not running.  Also, I have put on about 5 lbs because of not running and eating horrible.  Hopefully the next two weeks I can get going and then kick off the New Year right.  Just ran easy today trying to get back in the groove.

Glad to see you've recovered from the flu. Between sickness and holiday busyness it's hard to stay in a groove thru December. I'm sure you'll get your groove back heading into 2011!
