December is the month I started slowing down. After Thanksgiving, I think I switched to all walking. Running and using the elliptical just got to be too much and I left most workouts crying. That's just not worth it. So I put on my big girl panties and said, "You know what? I'll just walk then." And I did. And I started to add some swimming back in. And I experimented with yoga. Overall I think it was a successful month.

Wow! What a year it has been. I started the year battling the deepest depression I've ever had, which I conclude was more of a mental breakdown than anything. I fought through it with the help of a couple of different doctors, a very patient husband, and running therapy. And then I started to have fun, which yielded great results. I finally was starting to get my head back in the game. I started to use my bike as a form of transportation and enjoyed biking without the pressure of triathlon. Then the shocker - I was pregnant, which obviously, changed my running plans. I kept running, though, and even did some races while I was pregnant. We joined the YMCA and started to get back to swimming. I think 2012 was a great year. I can't wait to see what 2013 has in store.
