Well, I finally made it back to the gym for the first time since the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. It’s been rough getting back, since I still have lingering traces of the nasty cough that bodyslammed me Thanksgiving Day. I did okay today, though. I put in a half-hour on the elliptical machine, hitting it at about 95% of my usual level. Now if I can just get back to swimming on Friday; that’ll tell the tale, given the heavy stress it puts on my lungs. Missing so many days wasn’t fun, as I usually work out four times a week. Granted, it’s just 45 minutes per session, but at least I’m not in my usual location for that time–in other words, sitting in a chair in front of a computer screen.
