Update time

Well, despite covid and not taking my supplements as a result (mainly I would just fall asleep without remembering), my ferritin is bouncing back - I guess making sure to eat iron-rich meat every day is the solution! And I'm fine with that!

I'm still having issues with energy, and getting moving in the Canadian winter, with extreme cold alerts and snowfall warnings every week. Excited to discover though that the Sporting Life 10k is happening live and in-person this year! I signed up for it in January 2020 as my first "official" 10k, and then... well 2020 happened. They still sent me a t-shirt and a medal, and I still ran the distance, but it just isn't the same, is it? I am hoping that signing up for that will be motivation for me to get running again. I need external motivators - intrinsic just doesn't cut it for me.

Meanwhile, I set a mini goal for myself this week: do a 10-minute workout every morning before work. No one can say they don't have 10 minutes to spare. Situps, squats, lunges, wall pushups, etc. Today is day three. Goal is to be consistent through Friday - then I have my covid booster shot, so all bets are off (last one left me feeling terrible).
