In my last couch to 5k post I set goals designed to maintain some sort of exercise routine throughout the winter months.  One factor I left out, how busy the month of December can be leading up to Christmas.  To date I completed only one run and the 10,000 or so steps I accrue walking over the course of a each work day.

This week I was involved in a car accident, requiring my vehicle to be taken to a collision shop for repairs likely to take a week or so.  So that’s the bad news.  The good news stemming from the bad news is I am now on foot.  Walking to and from work will add a few thousand steps to my counter each day while I’m loaded down with a backpack.  Do I consider that strength training?  Stay tuned for more updates…
